Hello. I am having trouble propagating my kerberos database to a slave
KDC. Honestly, I don't know what I'm doing. I have, however, read
absolutely every piece of documentation available. I am stuck.
My master KDC and admin server are a Debian Linux machine running the
MIT kerberos implementation. I installed these myself according to
instructions. They work without problem. My slave KDC is a Mac OS 10.3,
Panther, machine.
DNS has been correctly configured for each machine.
host wum.lat
wum.lat has address 192.168.179.73
host 192.168.179.73
73.179.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer wum.lat.
host sil.fis.lat
sil.fis.lat has address 192.168.179.43
host 192.168.179.43
43.179.168.192.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer sil.fis.lat.
/etc/krb5.conf on the Linux machine and
/Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos on the Panther machine have been
correctly configured.
[libdefaults]
default_realm = LAT
[realms]
LAT = {
kdc = wum.lat
kdc = sil.fis.lat
admin_server = wum.lat
}
The principals host/wum.lat and host/sil.fis.lat have been added to the
database. Using kadmin, I extracted the principal host/wum.lat on
wum.lat and the principal host/sil.fis.lat on sil.fis.lat.
On the Panther machine, I created /var/db/krb5kdc/kpropd.acl.
host/wum.lat at LAT
host/sil.fis.lat at LAT
I also created /etc/xinetd.d/krb5_prop.
service krb5_prop
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/kpropd
groups = yes
flags = REUSE
}
Finally, I added krb5_prop 754/tcp to /etc/services.
On the Linux machine, I ran kdb5_util dump
/var/lib/krb5kdc/slave_datatrans. Running kprop sil.fis.lat, however,
fails.
kprop: Server rejected authentication (during sendauth exchange) while
authenticating to server
Generic remote error: Wrong principal in request
I have rechecked every step. I followed the instructions exactly,
except that I haven't setup klogind on Panther. klogind is not included
with the kerberos distribution for Panther.
What is the problem?
Thanks,
Jack
