I run Python on windows based environments (2003, win 7, 2008 r2, etc) both 32 and 64-bit flavors. I've recently had to authenticate to various corporate, internally facing web-sites using both NTLM and Kerberos authentication schemes.
I was successful with NTLM authentication using the 'requests' module. Specifically there is some documentation discussing ways for Other Authentication. Installing the 'requests-ntlm' packages worked great!
Unfortunately I cannot seem to get the requests-kerberos package to work. The requirements.txt indicates that the kerberos-1.1.1 package is required, but I am unable to build/install that package.
Here is what happens if I try to import the requests-kerberos library without the kerberos-1.1.1:
>>> import requests
>>> from requests_kerberos import HTTPKerberosAuth
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "requests_kerberos\__init__.py", line 17, in <module>
from .kerberos_ import HTTPKerberosAuth, REQUIRED, OPTIONAL, DISABLED
File "requests_kerberos\kerberos_.py", line 1, in <module>
import kerberos
ImportError: No module named kerberos
>>>
And here is my errors when trying to build the kerberos-1.1.1 package from one of my WIN 7 machines (with python 2.6.5):
>python setup.py install --install-lib "C:\tmp"

I also have tried one of my WIN 2008 R2 servers (with python 2.7.2), but get a different error:
>python.exe "setup.py" install --

I think this has to do that these are being built from source and need some sort of C or C++ compiler, whereas most other modules I've installed in the past worked great. Any advise is appreciated!
