Unfortunately, pre-1.7 krshd fails to support keyed checksums because
it uses the wrong API and wrong key usage. So, if the auth_context has an explicit checksum type set, then respect that. kcmd sets such a checksum type. Also, because other applications may have the same problem, allow the config file variable if set to override the default checksum. * kcmd.c: Force use of rsa_md5 * init_ctx.c: do not default to md5 * mk_req_ext.c: allow auth_context to override ticket: 1624 git-svn-id: svn://anonsvn.mit.edu/krb5/trunk@22160 dc483132-0cff-0310-8789-dd5450dbe970
