There may also be differences in how the two figure out defaults (e.g. when to use TCP vs. UDP or which DNS names are looked up when a realm isn't defined in the config file, there being both legacy TXT and modern SRV entries possible and each implementation follows different rules). If you're lucky you can just "sudo ln -s /Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos /etc/krb5.conf". -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates [email protected] [email protected] unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
