OK! Thanks to the help that I have received on my previous post,
I've gotten kadmin, ksu, etc, to work on the kerberos server and on
client machines of the same type ( they are IBM RS6000's ).
Now I'm trying to get it to work on an SGI running IRIX 4.0.5. I
make a "host/hal.emba.uvm.edu@REALM" entry in the database on the
server ( just as I did for the RS6000 machine ), use xst to get a
srvtab for that machine, ftp it to hal and copy it into /etc/v5srvtab.
I still get the error :
WARNING: Your password may be exposed if you enter it here and are
logged in remotely using an unsecure (non-encrypted) channel.
Kerberos password for root@EMBA.UVM.EDU:
ksu: Client not found in Kerberos database while getting initial
credentials
Authentication failed.
ksu[23932]: 'ksu root' authentication failed for ertle on /dev/ttyq41
when I try to use ksu. Just for the fun of it, I made a data base on
the client machine, hal, made a host entry for hal in that database,
and used xst to extract a srvtab. When I did this, I found that the
resultant file was nearly twice as big as the one that I got from the
server. I figure that this means that there is a word size/word
boundary difference between the two machines, and that the srvtab made
on one wont' work on the other.
The question is, of course, how do I make the v5srvtab made on the
server viable on the client? I think that it is possible to make the
two different srvtabs the same size by padding the on that is smaller
- has somebody already done this? Is it possible to get a srvtab
through kadmin?
Thanks for your help!!
