Im not sure what you mean when you say you are running "version 5.1.3.1".
That was the version of MIT's kerberos I downloaded.

Are you running the Kerberos code that comes installed with Solaris 9
by default or did you put MIT kerberos on top of a Solaris 9 system
and are trying to use MIT Kerberos instead?

Not using what comes with Solaris, I installed the MIT over Solaris's kerberos stuff.

Whose pam_krb5 module are you using - Sun's or an open source version?

Still using whatever came with Solaris pam.conf.

You *can* put MIT KRB5 on a Solaris 9 system (though the Kerberos that
comes with S9 is fully compatible with MIT KRB5 and in most cases you
shouldn't need to install MIT), but you must make sure your $PATH variable
is configured so that the MIT binaries are used before the Solaris
binaries.


On the client box I did try to use Solaris kerberos stuff, but was unable to get kadmin to talk to my KDC. Kept giving me a "realm missmatch" error. So I gave up and installed the MIT stuff, that got my kadmin to talk to my KDC.

Example: /usr/local/bin/kinit must be found before /usr/bin/kinit in
order to use the 3rd party version.

I installed the MIT kerberos right over Solaris's kerberos stuff.

The Solaris Kerberos code expects the various Kerberos config files
and keytab files to be kept in /etc/krb5/ instead of just in /etc
which is where MIT expects to find them.  Try creating softlinks
from the /etc directory to the various files in /etc/krb5 if you
are using MIT kerberos.

Did that. Plust klist -ke does show my keytab file okay.

ln -s /etc/krb5/krb5.keytab /etc/krb5.keytab
ln -s /etc/krb5/krb5.conf /etc/krb5.conf

One other suggestion would be to remove the MIT installation from the
Solaris 9 systems and use the supported Solaris Kerberos stuff, it
will eliminate alot of confusion and mismatches like you are seeing.

Looks like I will try that next. I didn't realize that Solaris 9 had kerberos already installed, just assumed I need to get the MIT version and install it.

Hello,
I'm setting up a test KDC running on Solaris 9. The version I'm running is 5.1.3.1. I have successfully installed and setup my KDC server. I have tested it out on RH9 and everything is working there, as in being authenticated and such. I'm now trying to get kerberos authentication to work on another Solaris 9 box. But am running into problems.
On the Solaris 9 box I have modified the pam.conf file to kerberos, copied the krb5.conf file from my kdc and ran kadmin as follows
kadmin - admin/admin
: ktadd host/machine_name.domain
: quit
When I tried to telnet into the system I got denied, the message in /var/adm/messages on the client box said something about "Bad encryption type". I found on the web to do ktadd the following:
kadmin -p admin/admin
: ktremove host/machine_name.domain
: ktadd -e des-cbc-crc:normal host/machine_name.domain
: quit
This got rid of the "Bad encryption type" error, but I am now getting the following error in the messages file:
"Key table entry not found". I don't know if this is saying that its not finding the machine keytab or my UID on the KDC server? Does anyone have any help here?
Thanks...
