Part of the problem is trying to get it to actually run on a client
system running Linux, Ubuntu Edgy specifically. It will compile when
heimdal-dev is installed, but won't compile when krb5-dev is installed.
When I build it against heimdal-dev and it tries to run via pam, I get
this error:
###### Log ######
PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_krb5_migrate.so)
PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/pam_krb5_migrate.so: undefined symbol:
kadm5_free_policy_ent]
PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_krb5_migrate.so
###### END ######
I have it configured in PAM in /etc/pam.d/common-auth as follows:
###### /etc/pam.d/common-auth ######
auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok_secure
auth sufficient pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=2000 use_first_pass
auth optional pam_krb5_migrate.so min_uid=2000
###### END ######
When a NIS user logs in, a Kerberos principal is not created and I get
this in the kadmin log:
###### LOG ######
kadmind[2083](Notice): Miscellaneous RPC error: X.X.X.X, invalid client
handle received
###### END ######
My thoughts on why it is not working is that the kadmin protocols from
MIT Kerberos and Heimdal are not compatible. Since pam_krb5_migrate is
compiled against Heimdal's kadmin code, I think that's where the error
is coming from.
Am I missing something from the pam_krb5_migrate setup?
