Machine: alpha
>Description:
I was trying to run the rpc tests on the alpha and they failed.
It appears that the server program fails "unable to set gssapi names"
Tracking down into the code - the error is
GSS-API authentication error acquiring credentials: Miscellaneous failure
GSS-API authentication error acquiring credentials: No principal in keytab match
The problem stems from the fact that the keytab has:
server/KANGAROO.MIT.EDU@SECURE-TEST.OV.COM
but the code is looking for
server/kangaroo.mit.edu@MIT.EDU
Note - the casing problem.
I would guess that the procedure creating the keytab is doing
something funky. Acually, I just found it:
qualname.pl on kangaroo returns KANGAROO.MIT.EDU
on dcl returns dcl.mit.edu
We need to downcase this string!!!
>How-To-Repeat:
gmake check
>Fix:
When I find my perl book I will remember how to downcase the
qualname.
