HI !
Currently we are facing Kerberos authentication issue in our RHEL7 server
running with Apache/2.4 upon changing Keytab Cypto type=AES256. Previously
it's Crypto type=all. Please check following with the details.
We are using mod_auth_kerb on Red Hat Enterprise Linux for our application
MediaWiki 1.30.0 running in Apache/2.4
And we never face any issue related to kerberos authentication till then we
used the keytab with following cipher algorithm in the encryption method.
(des-cbc-crc)
(des-cbc-md5)
(aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96)
(aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96)
Later, the DES crypto type is catagoried in weak crypto type and it's
denied to use in Produciton for security reason.
And we are asked to use the keytab using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
Cryptography with either of types (AES128 or AES265) for following cipher
algorithm.
(aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96)
(aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96)
But, unfortunately neither of the keytab encrypted with AES Crypto (AES128
or AES265) are working under Apache/2.4 and throws following error in HTTPD
server Error_log.
Error_log
-----------------
gss_accept_sec_context() failed: Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may
provide more information (, No key table entry found for the SPN)
Please let us know if there is any solution to resolve the issue for
kerberos.
