Synopsis: kserver

This is the Kerberos server.  (If you have Kerberos libraries Version 4
or below - Version 5 just uses GSSAPI, see Note: gserver.)  This
command is not normally run directly by users but is instead started up
on the server side when a user connects from a client with the
`:kserver:' access method:

     cvs -d :kserver:floss.red-bean.com:/usr/local/newrepos checkout myproj

Setting up and using Kerberos on your machine is beyond the scope of
this book.  (However, see the node `Kerberos Authenticated' in the
Cederqvist manual for some useful hints.)

Options: None.
