- After installing KRB5-BETA2 version on my machine (SunOS 4.1.1) and
- fixing some problems with kadmin, and kpasswd. I am trying to get
- the bsd rcommonds running, but to no avail. After performing the
- following procedures:
-
- 1. add an entry "host/ottawa.dl.nec.com" to the kerberos database
-
- 2. extract a srvtab file by using "xst ottawa.dl.nec.com host" in
- kdb5_edit and place it in /krb5/v5srvtab
-
- 3. make the appropriate change in /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf files
-
- 4. try "rlogin ottawa" and I got the following error messages:
-
- rlogin: kcmd to host ottawa.dl.nec.com failed - Server rejected authentication (during sendauth exchange)
- trying normal rlogin (/usr/ucb/rlogin)
- Password:
-
- In the /usr/adm/messages log file, it tells the following:
-
- Nov 19 18:38:15 ottawa krlogind[24308]: Kerberos authentication failed from otta
- wa.dl.nec.com: Wrong principal in request
- Nov 19 18:38:15 ottawa krlogind[24308]: Error reading message
-
- I have followed some of the source code, and it looks like somehow after
- encoding and decoding the application request, the principal and relavent
- keys from rlogin client don't match that of the krlogind server.
-
- I have no clue on why the K5 rlogin problems does this, Does anybody
- run into this kind of problem before, and can any knowledgeable netter
- provide any info on why the above occur? (BTW, I have also tried to use
- "host/ottawa" as principal, and "xst ottawa host" for srvtab).
-
- Thanks in advance!
