To address an earlier reply: it does not matter whether you specify the logfile location in krb5.conf or in kdc.conf. You certainly don't need to specify it in both places. krb5kdc and kadmind will reopen their log files upon receiving a SIGHUP. You can configure logrotate to do this with a postrotate command; there are examples in the logrotate man page. Neither kadmind nor krb5kdc will delete its own logfile. In the scenario described in your most recent message, some other agent must be deleting the logfile, but I don't know what it might be if it's not logrotate. ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
