Hi there.  I'm attempting to convert to a heimdal authentication system,
but  I've run into a problem.  (Everything else seems to work ok so far,
and I've  been following directions from this list -- specifically, from
this thread:
https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2002-May/004321.html )

I'm having problems with the file /usr/afs/etc/KeyFile.  When it's the
one  generated by Heimdal (with, I believe, only the correct types of
encryption)  bosserver fails to start (silently, I noted with
irritation.)  In order to  get AFS to start, I have to copy my old
keyfile back on top of it, start AFS,  and then copy the heimdal keyfile
over in order to proceed with
authentication.

I also noted they're quite different sizes; the heimdal-generated keyfile
is  about 800bytes, where the AFS one is about 100.  The types of
encryption,  according to ktutil, are all des-cbc-crc, although for some
reason I have  three copies of the key for principal afs/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Has anybody run into this problem before?  Does it just smell like an
encryption-type problem, or is it something simpler?

Exactly what commands did you use to generate the keyfile? _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
