But can you just download it and install the tree into /usr/athena
(default) and compile with it? You can sefaely delete it later on. Thanks:

wget ftp://ftp.pdc.kth.se/pub/krb/src/krb4-1.2.tar.gz
gzip -dc krb4-1.2.tar.gz | tar xf -
cd krb4-1.2
./configure --with-readline --with-x \
--with-openssl=/usr/local/openssl --enable-rxkad --enable-shared
make install
cd ../openssh-3.5p1
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-kerberos4=/usr/athena \
--with-tcp-wrappers --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/openssl --without-rsh \
--disable-suid-ssh --with-privsep --with-zlib --with-pam
make
./ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /tmp/ssh_host_dsa_key -N ""

cleanup:
rm -rf /usr/athena

Thanks.
