GNU Generic Security Service

https://www.gnu.org/software/gss/
Implementation of Generic Security Service API.

GNU Generic Security Service Library implements the GSS-API framework and a Kerberos V5 mechanism (through Shishi). GSS-API and Kerberos V5 is used by network clients and servers to perform authentication, often using the SSH protocol for remote access or SMTP/IMAP/POP3 for email.

This package contains also a command line tool for GSS.
