-- | Module for using a kerberos authentication service.
--
-- Please note that all configuration should have been done
-- manually on the machine prior to running the code.
--
-- On linux machines the configuration might be in /etc/krb5.conf.
-- It's worth checking if the Kerberos service provider (e.g. your university)
-- already provide a complete configuration file.
--
-- Be certain that you can manually login from a shell by typing
--
-- > kinit username
--
-- If you fill in your password and the program returns no error code,
-- then your kerberos configuration is setup properly.
-- Only then can this module be of any use.
