NetIdMgr doesn't know to look for your FILE: cache since it has no
method of enumerating FILE caches.  You need to manually add your FILE
cache to the search list on the Options->Kerberos v5->Credential Caches
page.  Once that is done NetIdMgr will be able to recognize and renew
the credentials.

Built-in support for keytab based identities is on the list of items we
wish to add but I'm not sure when it will be done.

Trying to use Windows Netidmgr with Keytab

2011-03-14 Thread Murray Trainer
Hi,

I am using the latest Kerberos for Windows from Secure Endpoints.  I created 
the Windows DOS batch file below that obtains my kerberos 5 tickets using a 
keytab file.

set krb_user=murray
set KRB5CCNAME=FILE:c:\krb5cc_%krb_user%
set KRB5_KTNAME=\%krb_user%.keytab
kinit -5 -r 7d -k -t C:\%krb_user%.keytab %krb_us...@mydomain.net
start /min C:\"Program Files"\MIT\Kerberos\bin\netidmgr.exe

The kinit line works and if I do a klist I have kerberos 5 tickets.  The last 
line in the script is intended to start Windows Netidmgr so it automatically 
renews these tickets using the keytab file.  Netidmgr starts and if I maximise 
it my identity is greyed out and my tickets don't get renewed unless I manually 
renew them by entering my password.  After that my tickets are renewed 
automatically.  Is there any way of making Netidmgr use the Keytab file instead 
of requiring passwords be entered?

Any assistance is appreciated

Thanks

Murray
