If I haven't bothered setting up krb524, but have an /etc/krb5.conf
stating that I want to get version 4 tickets, the symptom of the
problem is this:
EQUAL-RITES:/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/n/e/nemo$ telnet xanthine
...trying Athena's default telnet options: "-axf"
Trying 128.52.40.152...
Connected to xanthine.gratuitous.org (128.52.40.152).
Escape character is '^]'.
[ Kerberos V5 accepts you as ``nemo@GRATUITOUS.ORG'' ]
[ Kerberos V5 refuses forwarded credentials because Read forwarded creds failed: Connection refused ]
telnetd: Authorization failed.
Connection closed by foreign host.
EQUAL-RITES:/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/n/e/nemo$
I should be able to get an error telling me about the failure of
getting v4 tickets, so that I don't have to strace and scratch my head
wondering what port 4444 is for in order to debug the problem.
