On the server, type "hostname". If it returns anything other than ns.herdingcat.internal, correct it. Depending on your O/S this may be something like # echo "ns.herdingcat.internal" >/etc/hostname # hostname ns.herdingcat.internal On both the client and server, check that $ dig ns.herdingcat.internal $ dig -x 172.16.14.1 give the right results (names maps to IP, and IP maps to name). Check /etc/hosts on both machines. Either there should be no entry for this box, or if there is one, the FQDN should be the first listed name. 172.16.14.1 ns.herdingcat.internal # OK 172.16.14.1 ns.herdingcat.internal ns # OK 172.16.14.1 ns ns.herdingcat.internal # WRONG Regards, Brian. ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
