Heimdal or MIT Kerberos


Are there any current reasons to choose either Heimdal or MIT Kerberos over the other when setting up a Kerberos infrastructure? I presume they are still interoperable but perhaps there are other factors.

It's just what you like better. Both have advantages and disadvantages. Heimdal might be a bit easier with Windows clients. But MIT is better supported all around.
