Consider installing gss-ntlmssp package by default

Closed this issue · 5 comments

This package is commonly needed by .NET core applications to consume Kerberos authenticated services. Any chance of getting this package installed by default in the rootfs?

We have created an issue in Pivotal Tracker to manage this:

The labels on this github issue will be updated when the story is started.

There doesn't appear to be a trusty package for it:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gss-ntlmssp

We will add it to cflinuxfs3 today though -- we happen to be finalizing the package list right now :)

@sclevine cflinuxfs3 would be great. Thanks!

Actually @sclevine after doing some more digging adding the gss-ntlmssp package might not be the home run I thought it would be for .NET Core and NTLM. Perhaps you should leave it out of cflinuxfs3 until I'm more sure it will actually provide the value I think it will? Any issues with adding this package to cflinuxfs3 after the package list is finalized? What do you think?

This has been added to cflinuxfs3. (both gss-ntlmssp-dev and gss-ntlmssp)
