Hi Everyone,
I am running into a strange problem. I can not get a kerberos ticket when using a keytab, but for 1 specific user only:
This is the command i use:
> kinit perform-admin -kt .perform-admin.keytab
kinit: Preauthentication failed while getting initial credentials
Now if I do:
?kinit
then i get prompted for a password, and then a ticket is created.
Like i said i can use a keytab for every other user and it does work, it is only for this 1 specific user that it fails. I have also tried creating new keytabs for this user but it still fails. I don't know if I have this problem because it's the same user that I used to join the REALM in the first place..
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Thomas Beaudry
