Hi Steve,
Thanks again for the great discussion and details!
What's your typical credential type when need to request a service ticket? How
about adding some new APIs like following for the purposes? Note we're open on
this.
public ServiceTicket requestServiceTicketWithPassword(String principal,
String password, String serverPrincipal) throws KrbException
As you said, it looks like to address a different question than DIRKRB-440.
Maybe you can fire a new JIRA for your change?
It looks good to me that you provide your codes together in a GH PR request.
It's convenient for the community to review in a whole but I guess we'll still
need to fire a JIRA and attach the changes as a patch there for the commit. One
thing I'm not sure is how the credit would be counted since it's not going in
the typical way used in the ApacheDS project and its children. If it's doable
and not much a burden, would it be OK to break down your changes into smaller
patches and have new JIRAs for them? Please feel free to fire them. We need to
add you in the contributor list so issues can be assigned to you, but don't
worry, I guess the community would help with that, adding you and your
colleagues into the list.
Emmanuel or anybody, would you give your thoughts here?
I thought we have already implemented kadmin in local mode. Do you need it in
remote mode, say admin executes it in a remote host other than the KDC server
host? If yes then we'll need quite much work to implement it. In the medium
term we're going to implement the mode by providing REST APIs first then kadmin
tool can call them remotely. Sure if it's desired we could collaborate and make
it earlier.
Kpasswd would need to implement the change password protocol, right? It's also
in our medium term. Sure we'd love to get it supported earlier. Kvno tool is
also great to have. Thanks for the awesome work!
The community expect close collaboration with you and your colleagues, making
the project step further. You're most welcome!
Regards,
Kai

Subject: Re: [jira] [Created] (DIRKRB-440) Enhance Kinit to request a service
ticket
After a bit more investigation, at least name types "Principal (1)" and
"Service and Instance (2)" are allowed. The client interface is becoming a bit
awkward since the only way to pass the server principal to the client is
through a request option. I've been Wiresharking packets all day and am close
to having KinitTool's AS request packet to the point where it matches the MIT
kinit binary on my machine.
The KinitTool change made doesn't actually do what it's supposed to - it
obtains a TGT using the client principal and password (or ...), then uses the
TGT to obtain a service ticket. The MIT kinit binary (and the Heimdal one as
of a couple years ago) only send one request for a TGT. The client principal
and password are set as normal but the principal passed via the -S argument is
added as a server principal.
I'm just about done getting the KdcOptions flags working in the AS request
packets since FORWARDABLE, PROXIABLE and RENEWABLE_OK are typically sent along
with a kinit (at least when a -S is used).
I've found a few other miscellaneous bugs and was hoping I could submit them
all with the patch (they were all discovered while working on this code).
Since I'm actually changing more than one file, I've cloned the project's
GitHub mirror and will submit a pull request that encompasses my work.
I'd also like to propose some refactoring for the client. Currently KrbClient
is centered around KDC operations, but we're going to need kpasswd and kadmin
client functionality too (our SCIM implementation will switch to using Kerby
once we can run kadmin). I also wanted to investigate using the same AsRequest
and AsResponse both on the server and client. In any case, I'll submit the
pull request with only the changes needed for DIRKRB-440 and continue the
discussion for the rest of this on the mailing list.
As an aside, you've got KinitTool and KListTool, but the changes in this pull
request would make a KvnoTool pretty trivial. If you're interested, put
another issue in Jira and assign it to me (I'm smoyer1 in the Apache Jira). I
expect one or more of my coworkers will get involved with the project too!
Thanks again for all the work you've put into this library!
Steve

Thanks Steve for the great investigation! You're right there's an
implementation gap here. Please feel free working on this. Look forward to your
patch. I thought Yaning would be ready to review and commit it.
Regards,
Kai

I've been working on what is, in essence, the Kerberos kvno tool (except our
Java code verifies that the slaves are synchronized to the master) and have
been fighting against a problem that I believes underlies the -S option of
KinitTool.java.
When you request a TGT, you can add a server name (principal) which should be
of type "Service and Instance (2)". Currently, the client's
requestTgtWithOptions() method doesn't seem to support either the
SERVICE_PRINCIPAL or SERVER_PRINCIPAL options. I'm looking into why. Looking
at Wireshark, I think it's just not implemented in the client library code.
Regardless of the values passed, the server name remains the (default)
krbtgt@<DOMAIN>.
I'll submit a patch once I get the client's TGT request working.

--------------------------------
Summary: Enhance Kinit to request a service ticket
Key: DIRKRB-440
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRKRB-440
Project: Directory Kerberos
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Xu Yaning
In the USAGE of {{KinitTool.java}}, it supports parameter "-S service_name" to
enable the user to request a service ticket. It just need to be implemented.
