Re: smbk5pwd crash for missing symbol

[anto@eijkman.go.id]

Hello,

I had the same problem until I recompiled heimdal using the following
patch below to make the two symbols needed by smbk5pwd became public under
Centos 5. Not sure whether it's a proper way to solve the problem, but it
works. I can give you link to my heimdal SRPM which you can rebuild for
Mandriva if you want to.

Regards,
