Depends on
Rolling krb5 out to a company Mac fleet
On a managed fleet, installing a command-line tool is a decision rather than a command. EnterpriseBrew puts that decision in one place: who may install krb5, which version they land on, and what is recorded when they do.
- β’ Approve it for everyone, for one team, or for one person β and let developers request it when it isnβt approved yet.
- β’ Hold the fleet on the version it has, so an upgrade lands when you decide rather than when upstream ships.
- β’ See it checked against the best available vulnerability data before it installs, not after the next scan.
- β’ Keep every install in an audit trail: who, which Mac, which version.
