Hello to all;
I have a couple of problems operating kerberos V4 :
- The system does'nt verify or does'nt verify correctly
the passwords of principales. For instance, a principal "hua"
can 'change' his password by supplying a false 'old password".
Moreover, an adminstrator (in kerberos sense) can modify the
database without necessarily giving the correct
"admin password"(it can even press just <RETURN>).
- Executing the command "get principale_name" (in kadmin) as
an administrator (instance "admin") gives the following error
message : "kadm error: Insufficient access to perform requested operation."
If not for this two problems, things work fine so far :
the sample cl/srv program, the remote services (rlogin, rsh
rcp) all work good. For your information, as I don't have
export licence for the DES library of MIT, I used the one
written by Eric Young in Australia.
any suggestion is apprectiated ...
