Surely I do not understand the meaning of default realm in the kerberos configuration file (I am a beginners!):
[libdefaults] default_realm = REALM.XX but I was induced to believe that this is the realm assumed if you miss to declare the -k REALM.XX in the klog.krb5 or a at least that is what you may desume in the relative man page. Following the dispute it is even incomprehensible (to me!) why having declared the default realm in the kerberos configuration file, the klog.krb5 command does not work in the forms klog.krb5 -pr xxxxx -c cell.xx -k CELL.XX or klog.krb5 -pr xx...@cell.xx -c cell.xx -k CELL.XX but works in the form klog.krb5 -pr xx...@cell.xx -c cell.xx As I said in the previous post this is true on mac os 10.6.8 an I have tested until the 10.5 version with the suitable version of OpenAFS. By the way, I am one of the responsible of an HPC infrastructure based on CentOS 5.3 on which we performed the migration to kerberos 5 (which is giving this problems to our mac os x clients) and on the relative clients based on Linux distro we do not detect none of these bugs.
