What version of PuTTY, with whose GSSAPI mods
What does it have in the configure menu under
SSH->AUTH Dies it have a Service realm(SSPI):
entry?

Sounds like it cache your old password, and dido
a kinit under the covers using the old password?

Can you do a Wireshark (or Ethereal) trace, and watch
the Kerberos packets?

Dear gentleman,

i have jsut setted up my kerberos server (using heimdal, of course).
It is working perfectly.
I can even log from a windows boxes authenticating by it, but .....

After performed log on on my windows boxes, i changed the user
password. It worked 100%, i.e., kerberos password where changed, then
a logged out my windows session and logged on again. 100% correct.

My suprise was when i launched putty. I could log into my server
directly as expected. But after changing password i got the following
on putty screen:

Using service principal name: "host/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@".

As Michael said,  the last @ looks strange, but with SSPI,
one of the calls does have <service>@<instance>@<realm>,
which would have been [EMAIL PROTECTED]@MY.DOMAIN
to get the principal host/[EMAIL PROTECTED]


SSPI Authentication Failed.  Try specifying Service Principal Name.
Using username "sioux".

In Greene, New York, it is illegal to eat peanuts and walk backwards on
the sidewalks when a concert is on.


Now, i am having to log in using password. Does anybody face such
problem before ?

Thanks in advance.
