Hello,

There is an environment variable which can be set to control the name of the 
cache file: set KRB5CCNAME to the name of the cache file to use.

Mit freundlichem Gruß / Kind regards / Cordialement

Subject: Fw: SSO with telnet/rlogin/rsh


We did a dipper investigation of this issue and found out that the difference 
between sshd and telnetd is in the user credential cache file name.
While ssh to the machine the credential cache file name is composed using the 
numeric uid of the user like /tmp/krb5cc_XXXX. On the other hand while telnet 
to the machine the credential cache file name is composed using the telnet 
process number.
As a result rpc.gssd is unable to find the credential cache file for the user 
since it tries to look for the files having the numeric uid as part of their 
name.

In the /tmp directory the following file was created:

      ls -ltr /tmp/krb5cc_*
      -rw------- 1 user_name bin 431 Jan 15 16:41 /tmp/krb5cc_p3715

Note that 3715 is the pid of the telnet process.

Following is the output of the rpc.gssd daemon when we use telnet to enter the 
machine:

Hello,

I am trying to set up SSO in a Linux environment which has the following 
components up and running:.

      Kerberos 5
      LDAP
      Kerberized NFSv4 ( security flavor krb5 )
      Automount

When using ssh everything works fine, tickets ( for both user and nfs ) are 
forward and when the user login to a machine both tickets are set.
Unfortunately when using telnet/rlogin/rsh ( the ones that shipped with 
krb5-workstation ) the user login to the machine but fails to cd to his home 
directory which is automounted using kerberized ( kerberos 5 ) NFSv4.
When issuing 'klist -5' just the user principal is presented and not the NFS 
principal.

Does anyone successfully set SSO with telnet/rlogin/rsh in a kerberized
NFSv4 environment when using automount.

Thanks,

Ido Levy
