Cannot contact any KDC for real 'TR.LAB' while getting initial credentials

Thanks Greg,

I figured it out after a while. I am noob in Linux :) I was using the wrong command to open ports through the firewall. When I opened port 88 and 749 (with the right command this time) it worked correctly.

I have another questions I will create a new thread

Thanks

I added the IP address for kdc in the /etc/hosts file and /etc/resolv.conf and I am able to ping the KDC
