<h3>Overview</h3>
<p>In general, you may modify the Mac OS X Kerberos Extras Installer source
to suit the needs of your site. The binaries are provided in the layout the installer expects;
all you need to do is replace the edu.mit.Kerberos file (and possibly the Read Me file) and
rebuild the installer! However, there are a few elements which all
installers must contain, and we have a few tips on customizing.</p>
<h3>Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>Your installer must display the "Kerberos License" file on startup
(this file is included with the distribution).
<li>You should not change the install locations of Kerberos for Macintosh files,
simply because Kerberos for Macintosh will probably stop working if the
files are installed in different locations.
<li>The MIT KfM OS X Extras Read Me is provided as a guideline for creating your own
read me. If you use a modified form of the Read Me, be sure to remove all
references to MIT support addresses - MIT's HelpDesk does
not provide support for Kerberos users outside of the MIT community.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Tips</h3>
<ul>
<li>Don't forget to update the <CODE>edu.mit.Kerberos</CODE>
file with appropriate realm configuration for your site before building the
installer! For details about how to do this, see the <a href="../../../Common/Documentation/preferences-osx.html">Kerberos
Preferences on Mac OS X Documentation</a>.</li>
<li>Place your edited <CODE>edu.mit.Kerberos</CODE> file in <CODE>BinariesForInstaller</CODE> , replacing
the MIT one that is provided as an example.
</ul>
