My stash file is as follows:
cn=kdc-srv,cn=krbContainer,dc=example,dc=local#{HEX}41646d696e4b6579
cn=adm-srv,cn=krbContainer,dc=example,dc=local#{HEX}41646d696e4b6579
In my bug report, I just assumed the stash file must be malformed, but
this might not be the case. Even though the stash file doesn't look
malformed, perhaps the algorithm for encoding the file is incorrect?
If the stash file is used to authenticate the KDC to itself
automatically before starting the kadmind and krb5kdc daemons, why
would these daemons be failing to start if the stash file is encoded
correctly?
