Hi Luke, I am able to resolve that issue. It was because I did not create the database and when I created the database kdb5_util create -s My deamons started working.
Now I am getting a new error svlv6017:/usr/local/sbin # ./kadmin Authenticating as principal admroot/[email protected] with password. kadmin: Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm while initializing kadmin interface Any idea how do I get over this?

At least it stats krb5.conf, opens it, gets a return code of 3 (is that the filehandle, or an error?) and then it proceeds to look for /usr/local/etc/krb5.conf. What do the permissions (from ls -l) look like on /etc/krb5.conf? I don't know if this affects Kerberos but it is a general issue.... If I copy a config file around enough, it will sometimes be converted to the Windows/DOS text-file format. You can check this by opening /etc/ktb5.conf in vi -- is there's a [dos] next to where it shows the name of the file at the bottom of the screen, this is the issue. The strace output doesn't suggest that this is a problem, but I've spent hours banging my head against the wall only to discover that my config-file (or Makefile or whatever) wasn't being interpreted properly because of this one. :-) Thanks, -Luke Tadoori (EXT), Vilas wrote: > Hi Luke, > > Thanks for the reply. > > The O/S that I am using is a suse linux 64 bit version. > > That one that it is working fine is a suse linux 32 bit o/s and both of > them are diff machines. > > When I have executed the command on the 64 bit o/s it gave the output as > attached. > $ strace /usr/local/sbin/kadmind 2>&1 | egrep 'stat|open' | less > > > I have also done the output on the working machine which is a 32 bit and the > output is also similar and there were quite a few so files that are missing > and are identical to that in the 64 bit. > > I am not understanding how is it working in the 32 bit and not in the 64 bit. > Is there anything that is not compatible with the 64 bit suselinux. > > > My krb5.conf file is on /etc and it contains the correct entries. > > > Am I missing anything in my investigation to solve the issue...please help. > > > Thanks > Vilas > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Luke Scharf [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2009 8:31 PM > To: Tadoori (EXT), Vilas > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Issues starting kadmin on suse linux > > You could run it with strace, and see which files it's trying to open: > $ strace /usr/loca/sbin/kadmind > > If you shell happens to be bash and you want to get fancy, you can > filter the output like so: > $ strace /usr/local/sbin/kadmin 2>&1 | egrep 'stat|open' | less > > Picking through the output should tell you for real which file isn't > being found. > > -Luke > > > Tadoori (EXT), Vilas wrote: > >> Dear All, >> >> I have downloaded the following version >> >> krb5-1.6.3-signed.tar from the consortium and was able to configure , make >> and install as per the install guide provided as per the steps below >> >> ./configure >> make >> make install >> >> It installed fine, when I went to the /usr/local/sbin and started the >> ./kadmind >> >> I get the following message >> kadmind: No such file or directory while initializing, aborting >> >> The version of suse linux is as follows >> >> SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (x86_64) - Kernel 2.6.5-7.244-default(2) >> >> >> I have earlier installed it on >> >> SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (i586) - Kernel 2.6.5-7.97-smp (1). >> >> And it is working fine.... >> >> I would be greatful if anyone would help me in resolving this issue. >> >> Thanks >> Vilas >> >> ________________________________________________ >> Kerberos mailing list [email protected] >> https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos >> >> > > ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
