I'm getting kerberos error 52 when I try to kinit from hp-ux (11.0 running on 9000 series system) to our Windows 2003 AD domain. It works for certain admin accounts that have few group memberships, but not for regular users.
I understand this to be due to the large PAC headers Windows is using for authorization data, which causes Windows to use TCP rather than UDP. Apparently versions of MIT kerberos earlier than 1.3.1 do not support TCP.

I've just run another test and discovered that I can successfully log into the host initially (via PAM kerberos library and SSH), and I don't get error 52. I've got a ticket in my cache and everything. Kerb error 52 only occurs if I'm using kinit from the shell.


How could this be? I believe the PAM kerberos library that HP supplies is based on Krb1.1, which I thought would not be able to communicate via TCP to our W2k3 KDC's. Does anyone know why this is working through PAM, and not at the shell?

Our users are not going to need to do kinit at the shell, but I just wonder if ignorance is bliss, or if I'm going to encounter problems anyway with this configuration.

Thanks.
