You have been subscribed to a public bug: In Ubuntu 18.04, ipa-server-install does not correctly configures krb5 -admin-server. Therefore, the kadmin server does not start. The problem is that the krb5-admin-server service needs the file /etc/krb5kdc/kadm5.acl. This file may be empty, but it should exists, otherwise the server does not start. However, the krb5-admin-server does not contain such a file, nor the ipa-server-install command creates it during its execution.
Note this was different in Ubuntu 16.04, where krb5-admin-server used to start even without the ACL file. ** Affects: freeipa (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- freeipa install does not correctly setup krb5-admin-server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772205 You received this bug notification because you are a member of FreeIPA, which is subscribed to freeipa in Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~freeipa Post to : freeipa@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~freeipa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
