Hello,
I am trying to create a custom .msi package for Kerberos for Windows
3.2. I was able to properly edit the .msi through orca, and it installs
with my custom krb5.ini, krb.con, etc. great. However, when it installs
on a machine with a previous version of KfW, it will not overwrite the
existing c:\windows\krb5.ini, krb.con and krbrealm.con files. One
option it to have the user remove the files manually, or choose to
remove the configuration files when uninstalling 2.6.5, but that may not
always happen properly. My question is, does anyone know where to edit
the .msi so the custom files will always overwrite the existing files?
I'm not sure this is the best practice, but it gives me options.

Not only is it bad practice, it should never be done under normal
circumstances. Most installers allow you to copy files from the
installation to the target location, effectively overwriting the files.
Why aren't you asking this in kfwdev?
