Sample_server/Sample_client: problems, any help would be immensely
appreciated ..
Compiled the Kerb4 source with the following changes to the
/util/imake.includes/config.imake file:
GLOBAL_CDEFS= -Dsun -Dsparc -DSunOS=41 -DBSD42 -DKERBEROS -DVFS \
$(NOENCFLAG) $(DBMFLAG) $(SHMFLAG)
Fired up kerberos and kadmind.
Entered the following;
Principal Name: sample
Instance: sol
in the database.
Created my srvtab file and placed it in /etc/srvtab
Before I tested the sample_server, I grabbed a ticket granting ticket using
the kinit and utility (otherwise i get an error):
Ticket file: /tmp/tkt1567
Principal: ayse@DEAKIN.EDU.AU
Issued Expires Principal Jul 24 13:03:38 Jul 24 21:03:38
krbtgt.DEAKIN.EDU.AU@DEAKIN.EDU.AU
(Nb: I made all the appropriate entries
to the /etc/services and /etc/inetd.conf files)
I then tried to run sample_server, using the following command:
/sample_client sol 43
.. which responded with the following error message:
./sample_client: cannot authenticate to server: Generic kerberos error
(kfailure).
We tracked it down to the: krb_recvauth/krb_sendauth routine.
sample:server
/* we want mutual authentication */
authopts = KOPT_DO_MUTUAL;
status = krb_recvauth(authopts, 0, &clt_ticket,
#ifdef DEBUG
TEST_SERVER,
#else
SAMPLE_SERVER,
#endif
instance, &peername, &myname, &auth_data, SRVTAB,
sched, version);
I guess what concerns me is the fact that we might have to change the
source code. I thought kerberos would compile and run ok under our SUnOS
4.1 machines. I guess what I am getting at is; is there something
very simple we neglected to do ie. with our compilation configuration or
database entries which would correct for the above indicated error
many thanks in advance
in anticipation
