"Beta" was used simply to mean that the code did not have
significant test or deployment experience. So far there
have been only a few bugs, all known to be fixed at the
moment.

You will need a Linux distribution whose user space
Kerberos libraries support AES_SHA2 enctypes, and of
course a recent kernel. Scott, anything else? Does the
KDC need to handle these enctypes too?
