kadmin: error

[Naveen BN]

Dear  all,
I am a new bee to kerberos ,i am running client and kdc server on the 
same machine .my short term aim is to get
a ticket from kdc succesfully...
I followed the steps below..
1) ./configure
    make
   make install
2) Edited file in /etc/krb5.conf and it goes like this
[libdefaults]
default_realm = GESL.COM
dns_lookup_realm = false
krb4_config = /usr/kerberos/lib/krb.conf
krb4_realms = /usr/kerberos/lib/krb.realms

[kdc]
profile = /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kdc.conf

[realms]
    GESL.COM = {
        kdc = 172.16.8.70:88
        admin_server = 172.16.8.70
        default_domain = GESL.COM
        v4_instance_convert = {
            gesl = gesl.com
        }
    }

[domain_realm]
    .gesl.com = GESL.COM
    gesl.com = GESL.COM
   
[logging]
    kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log   
    admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmin.log
    default = FILE:/var/log/krb5lib.log
3) edited file /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kdc.conf it goes like this
[kdcdefaults]
    kdc_ports = 750,88

[realms]
    GESL.COM = {
        profile = /etc/krb5.conf
        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.GESL.COM
        kdc_ports = 750,88
        max_life = 10h 0m 0s
        max_renewable_life = 7d 0h 0m 0s
    }
4) in /usr/local/var/krb5kdc/kadm5.acl
     root/admin at GESL.COM  *
5) I used kdb5_util create -r GESL.COM -s
    gave password
6) kadminl.ocal: addprinc root/admin at GESL.COM
                          : quit
7) root at Naveen:~/krb5-1.6.3/src# kadmin
Authenticating as principal root/admin at GESL.COM with password.
Password for root/admin at GESL.COM:
kadmin: Incorrect password while initializing kadmin interface
8)root at Naveen:~/krb5-1.6.3/src# kinit
kinit(v5): Client not found in Kerberos database while getting initial 
credentials
