Hi folks,
My site uses Debian squeeze for both workstations and servers with MIT
Kerberos 1.8.3 for authentication. Although there are generally no
complaints, from time to time users say that the workstations do not
accept their passwords on the first attempt, even when they anticipate
the issue and made a conscious effort to not make any mistakes. Upon
examination of the KDC logs, I find some evidence to support their
claims. The most obvious is this error:
CLIENT_NOT_FOUND: jsmith@EXAMPLE.COM for krbtgt/EXAMPLE.COM@EXAMPLE.COM,
Client not found in Kerberos database
In most cases the login name is not not spelled correctly, or there is
nothing like it in the database at all, but in others there is nothing
wrong. Yet, this error occurs anyway.
Does anyone have an explanation for this phenomenon?
Thanks,
Jaap
