I've been attempting to install Kerberos Version 5 under Solaris 2.4 and have
been struggling miserably. Let me interject the disclaimer of admitting to be
a novice both to Kerberos and any modern day Unix system. So, my problems have
been Kerberos-specific and non-Kerberos related because of my lack of
experience.
I'm trying to test the rsh, rlogin, and rcp client services. The problem
seems to be universal that the server is not found in the Kerberos database,
specifically, the rsh message is:
rsh: kcmd to host SERVER failed - server not found in Kerberos database
I've got entries in my Kerberos database for host/SERVER@domain where SERVER
is the FQDN of the host on which I'm trying to execute the rsh command. I also
have a host entry for the client, as well.
I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I've done the ex_st command for both
hosts for the "host" service and placed each individually on respective
machines in /etc/v5srvtab.
Also, doing nslookup on my server hostname from the Kerberos server
successfuly resolves the name and IP address. I'm totally clueless at this
point what is wrong or how to go about debugging this problem. Any help would
be truly appreciated.
Thanks -
