This is a problem I've run into before, but never been able to properly resolve. Basically, the login.krb, despite its name, doesn't actually write Kerberos tickets to /tmp. It started on this machine when we tried to upgrade it to AFS 3.3a. The login.krb that Transarc provided wrote the tickets, but didn't chown them to the user- it left them owned by root. Not too good. So I downgraded the machine to 3.2 again, and now the tickets are not being written. All the other machines in the network still work fine, and the md5 checksums of *their* login binaries match the ones that are on the problem machine, as do the ownerships and modes of /bin/login*. The various AIX links to stuff in /etc are all intact as well. I blew away the AFS cache when I did the downgrade, so that shouldn't be an issue. There is no error message when you log in, and you get tokens as usual; there just isn't any ticket file. Has anyone seen anything like this? Any and all suggestions will be appreciated. -Jason Larke University of Michigan, ITD/LSA UNIX Partnership
