To: kerberos@shelby.Stanford.EDU
In Version 4 : admin/kdb_edit.c
kdb_verify_master_key(master_key, master_key_schedule, stdout)
static C_Block master_key;
static Key_schedule master_key_schedule;
FILE *stdout;
Now change the last argument to (FILE *)NULL ,and even if the
master password does not verify, the routine returns the master
key version (> 1) and all is well.
The problem seems to be in the following bit of code
in kdb_verify_master_key(..)
>if (n && (out != (FILE *) NULL)) {
> fprintf(out, gettxt("\n\07\07verify_master_key: Invalid master key;
> does not match database.\n"));
> return (-1);
> }
Comments ???
I have seen some wierd stuff in version 5 but this takes the cake.
