[Bug 452461] Re: Cannot elide admin_servers from debconf config
Sorry for not following up sooner.
I want to set up my /etc/krb5.conf file via debconf, as is currently
implemented, but I want to do things a little differently from what the
scripts have been written to do.
Normally, you'd specify something like this in debconf:
krb5-config/kerberos_servers: server1.realm.com server2.realm.com
krb5-config/default_realm: REALM.COM
krb5-config/admin_server: admin-server.realm.com
Which would result in a clause in /etc/krb5.conf like
[realms]
REALM.COM = {
kdc = server1.realm.com
kdc = server2.realm.com
admin_server = admin-server.realm.com
}
But I want a krb5.conf clause that *does not specify* an admin_server,
only kdcs. (I want to use an explicitly specified KDC, but allow the
Kerberos admin server to be located via DNS.)
Presumably, you would set an empty value for admin_server in debconf,
and the scripts would give the desired result. But at present, an empty
admin_server value causes the REALM.COM = { ... } clause not to be
generated *at all*. It's the same behavior you get if you enable the
debconf krb5-config/dns_for_default option.
The bug is that debconf will process only both items (kdc +
admin_server) or none, where it should be allowing the flexibility to
use just one or the other.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we can't fix it because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read How to report bugs effectively http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem. We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures. At a minimum, we need: 1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem, 2. the behavior you expected, and 3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible). Thanks! When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's Help - Report a Problem menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs. ** Changed in: kerberos-configs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Wishlist ** Changed in: kerberos-configs (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Cannot elide admin_servers from debconf config https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/452461 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to kerberos-configs in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
