Is that for the client or the server? I tried having only the DES key for
the client:
slot KVNO Principal
---------------------------------------------------------------------
3 3 nfs/rhel4.unx.csupomona.edu@CSUPOMONA.EDU (DES cbc mode with CRC-32)
With the same problem:
rhel4 etc # klist -ec FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_machine_CSUPOMONA.EDU
Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_machine_CSUPOMONA.EDU
Default principal: nfs/rhel4.unx.csupomona.edu@CSUPOMONA.EDU
Valid starting Expires Service principal

renew until 04/07/08 10:33:02, Etype (skey, tkt): Triple DES cbc mode with HMAC/sha1, Triple DES cbc mode with HMAC/sha1

I know that you can *create* the NFS server principal with only a DES key,
which will result in all clients using DES. However, I have NFSv4 clients
that are actually capable of 3DES (for example, Solaris 10), and don't want
to cripple all NFS traffic either.
I found a relevant post from three years ago:

I guess my basic problem is that RHEL 4 is old and dusty :(, it actually
includes Kerberos 1.3. One of the reasons I hate running Red Hat -- so out
of date. Unfortunately, some proprietary commercial applications have a
dependency on it <sigh>...
I suppose I'm just going to be stuck with some level of brokenness. Maybe
it is fixed in RHEL 5, I'll have to see if the commercial applications
support that yet.
