RE>A question about send_auth failures 8/17/95
I ran into the same problem with the sample server and client (see original
message below). In my case, the client abort was due to an error encountered
in the server (sserver: recvauth failed--No such file or directory). Note
that this error was posted to the system error log. This error was caused by
a file open error on the default keytab file, which I discovered by stepping
through the server code with a debugger. There were 2 reasons for this error:
1) the pathname for the keytab file must be the one specified in the osconf.h
file, and 2) under SunOS 4.1.3 it appears that the fopen system called failed
due to a very long pathname. There could be other reasons for the server to
fail, and the client displays the same message. For instance, the server may
have received an expired ticket from the client. Check your system error log
where the server is running.
Hope this helps.

This may be old news but I can't find references to it anywhere.
I am trying to install K5.B5 on a Sparc Classic running Solaris 2.4
using gcg 2.6.3. I have successfully compiled the package and I ran the
test suite which it passed. I then setup a test databse and was able to
use kinit, klist, and kdestroy. The problem arises when I try to use the
sample server program or the rlogin program. The sclient aborts
with the following error message:
Software caused connection abort while using sendauth
I then tried using rlogin the connection was made and then closed. I tried
checking the krb5.log file and found the following:
Aug 15 13:54:20 bio-33 krb5kdc[6564]: TGS_REQ: ISSUE: authtime
808512839, host 128.135.75.42, awstern@BSDAC3.TEST for
host/bio-33.bsd.uchicago.edu@BSDAC3.TEST
I assume this means that the rlogind is requesting a session key, which if
true makes it look as though it's dying in about the same place as the
sample server program.
Any explanations or clarifications would be appreciated.
Note I have already checked out the Web page and followed the instructions
there
Many Thanks
