Hello again everyone, I'm still at it. I've progressed to removing the 
kdb5.conf 
file from the /etc directory and trying the following command.

bones# ./kdb5_create -r WUSTL.EDU -d principle -M BONES

from which I get this response;


ld.so.1: ./kdb5_create: warning: /usr/4lib/libc.so.1.8 has older revision than e
xpected 9

Initializing database 'principle' for realm 'WUSTL.EDU',
master key name 'BONES@WUSTL.EDU'
You will be prompted for the database Master Password.
It is important that you NOT FORGET this password.
kdb5_create: Invalid argument while reading master key
bones#                                          

I've been repremanded for not upgrading libc.so.1.8, but when I do that I get 
core 
dumps abound, so I think I'll stick with 1.8 for now. What I don't understand 
is the 
last line "kdb5_create: Invalid argument while reading master key" where I 
think 
I'm supposed to be entering a password. Could someone please advise. 

This is an install of v5b5 on Solaris 4.2. Thanx.

Rich.
