Hi,
I am a newbie trying to install kerberos-1.3.5 on a Redhat Linux ES
2.0.( Actually my goal is to install krb, cyrus-sasl and cyrus-imap
server). I tried to install by following the instructions on the
kerberos installation guide. here is a list of steps i have taken.
1. ./configure
2. make
3. make check
4. make install
( though my ./configure and make commands didnt return any error messages,
krb5.conf and kdc.conf were not found. I had to manually create these 2
files. I have copies of these 2 files at the end).
5. kdb5_util create -r ABC.COM -s ( ran succesfully)
6. I checked for the 5 files under /usr/local/var/krb5kdc and found them.
My krb5.conf file looks like this
7. added the following to the acl file:
*/admin at ABC.COM *
userwithadmin at ABC.COM ADMCIL
userwithadmin/*@ABC.COM il */root at ABC.COM
*@ABC.COM cil *1/admin at ABC.COM
8. ran kadmin.local: addprinc admin/admin at ABC.COM
got the response---Principal "admin/admin at ABC.COM" created.
9. ran kadmin.local: addprinc root/admin at ABC.COM
got the response---Principal "root/admin at ABC.COM" created.
10. created a kadmind keytab
11. started krb5kdc and kadmind deamon.
12.( I didnt have to install the slave kdc's so skipped most of the
remaining sections)
13.now when i try to run kadmin or kinit , i get the following response
----kinit(v5): Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm while getting
initial credentials
Any help that could guide me to to figure out the problem is greatly
appreciated.
APPENDIX:
krb5.conf file looks like this:
[logging]
default = FILE:/var/log/krb5libs.log
kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmind.log
[libdefaults]
ticket_lifetime = 24000
default_realm = ABC.COM
dns_lookup_realm = true
dns_lookup_kdc = true
[realms]
ABC.COM = {
kdc = xyz.abc.com:88
admin_server = xyz.abc.com.com:749
default_domain = abc.com
}
[domain_realm]
.abc.com = ABC.COM
abc.com = ABC.COM
[kdc]
profile = /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kdc.conf
[pam]
debug = false
ticket_lifetime = 36000
renew_lifetime = 36000
forwardable = true
krb4_convert = false
My kdc.conf looks like this:
[kdcdefaults]
kdc_ports = 750,88
[realms]
ABC.COM = {
database_name = /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/principal
admin_keytab = FILE:/usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kadm5.keytab
acl_file = /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kadm5.acl
key_stash_file = /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/.k5.ABC.COM
kdc_ports = 750,88
kadmind_port = 749
max_life = 10h 0m 0s
max_renewable_life = 7d 0h 0m 0s
}
[logging]
kdc = FILE:/usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kdc.log
admin_server = FILE:/usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kadmin.log
