i have seen this error before under solaris. if you compile Kerberos without the correct DNS settings, then the host resolution fails, even though you may see a successful authentication on the KDC. to solve this problem under Solaris, i modified my /etc/hosts file to specify the full name.domain system entry first. so as an example: change: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost 192.168.0.10 redhat redhat.mydomain.com to: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost 192.168.0.10 redhat.mydomain.com redhat
