To my knowledge, MIT IS&T is now maintaining the Kerberos Extras
package, primarily as a service to the MIT community.  The current
version can be downloaded by all from:
http://downloads.mit.edu/released/kerberos-extras/MIT-Kerberos-Extras.dmg

I haven't seen evidence of that.  Here at CSAIL[1], we have
consistently been able to obtain kerberos tickets that reflect
settings from that file, e.g. the default_realm.  Also, the file path
that MIT Kerberos Extras deploys krb5.ini-style settings to in 10.7 is
still /Library/Kerberos/edu.mit.Kerberos


We've wandered into Heimdal territory here and should probably switch
to [email protected] or discussions.apple.com.  In the meantime:
if anyone else has seen Mac OS 10.7 Heimdal tickets lose their
Forwardable and Proxiable flags in the process of initiating GSSAPI
ssh connections or has an explanation, I'd be quite interested to hear
off-list.
