>Description:
Well, the time came to upgrade from beta 7 to 1.0 and I stumbled over
a bug in kdb5_uil (I think). When creating KDC database with:
% kdb5_util create -r NETMEDIATECH.COM -s
the kdb_util ignores the kdc.conf database_name directive:
[realms]
NETMEDIATECH.COM = {
database_name = /usr/local/kerberos/lib/krb5kdc/principal
...
}
and creates the database in /usr/local/kerberos/var/krb5kdc/principal.
(note it went into var and not lib subdirectory).
>How-To-Repeat:
Specify database_name directive in kdc.conf that is different then
<PREFIX>/var/krb5kdc/principal.
