No module 'pwd' on importing krbcontext #33

Closed tushar-sharma closed 4 years ago

Hi

Simply importing the module: krbcontext on Windows

import krbcontext

Gives me the following error. 

import pwd
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pwd'

It seems like krbcontext\context.py uses pwd module which seems to be available only on Unix , is there a workaround for this on Windows?

I never tested it on Windows. I have to investigate and figure out a solution or workaround. Does anyone else have some ideas or suggestions? Thanks.

In addition, Windows wasn't a target platform when this module was created. So, I'm not sure if krbcontext could work well on Windows even if this issue gets fixed.

Close this issue. Welcome patch to make it work on Windows.
