MIT kerberos and ssh



I didn't get any replies on freebsd-questions for this one maybe someone here could help?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I have been trying to get a working MIT Kerberos KDC on a server running 6.1-Release. I have been able to keep the heimdal version from being built during several past 'make worlds' and I have compiled and installed MIT krb5 from /usr/ports (current per portmanager). I have
been getting an error tryiing to start sshd (also built from /usr/ports), it complains about not finding 'libkrb5.so.8' then exits.
I have been able to start the KDC but have not gotten much further as I would like to fix the ssh problem first. My questions are as follows:
1. Is libkrb5.so.8 a heimdal library?
2. Which source directories are the correct ones to use, /usr/src/kerberos - /usr/src/secure, or /usr/ports/security/krb5 -
/usr/ports/security/openssh?
3. Why are there two different directories i.e; /usr/src and /usr/ports for the same source?
4. How do I get 'kerberized' ssh and give configure directives to the krb5 make to include GSSAPI support?
5. Is there a certain build order for MIT kerberos and openssh?

I have read both the Handbook and the 'Complete' book on this subject and have not been able to glean enough information to get me going,
Google didn't help much either. I have 6 Debian clients, 2 WinXP clients, and 1 Debian KDC slave and wanted this machine to be an MIT-KDC
master and yet avoid the apparent 'kadmin' server incompatibility between Heimdal and MIT Kerberos (which all the Debian clients run). I
am also very comfortable with the MIT version. Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
