There seems to be two related issues but actually both on 12.10. Some background information: on RHEL 6 both Firefox and ssh work as expected (i.e., rdns setting in krb5.conf is respected meaning that if DNS reverse mapping has not been set up properly then authentication fails when rdns = true but succeeds with rdns = false). On F18 Firefox works as expected but ssh fails, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=863350.
On Ubuntu 12.04 both Firefox/ssh work as expected. However, on Ubuntu 12.10 both ssh and Firefox fail to authenticate regardless rdns = false in krb5.conf. I'd suggest you to test and verify with curl and/or Firefox to make sure libc/krb5 are ok and once verified then investigate ssh in more detail which seems to have an issue of its own. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #863350 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=863350 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1057526 Title: getaddrinfo returns PTR name in ai_canonname when using DNS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/1057526/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
