Hi all,

I have recently downloaded ApacheDS 2.0.0-M15 to test Kerberos authentification 
and GSS-API.


I have tried following the Kerberos user guide, but I am unable to authenticate 
myself using kinit, I get

"krb_error 9 The client or server has a null key (9) - The client or server has 
a null key”




I exported the corresponding LDAP entry, and I got


dn: uid=hnelson,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: krb5KDCEntry
objectClass: person
objectClass: krb5Principal
objectClass: organizationalPerson
cn: Horatio Nelson
krb5KeyVersionNumber: 0
krb5PrincipalName: [email protected]
sn: Nelson
uid: hnelson




I’m guessing that my problem is that the krb5keys attributes are missing ?  
However the documentation states that they should be generated automatically…  
Is there a configuration I need to activate ?  


I’m using Apache Directory Studio and I have made sure that the "Enable 
Kerberos" box was checked and that all Encryptions Types were checked under the 
Kerberos Tab.


From older post, I have seen reference to configuring a 
keyDerivationInterceptor in a server.xml file, but I’m not sure if this applies 
to version 2.0.0 of ApacheDS as I cannot find any server.xml file.


Can anybody give me a pointer as to why my krb5keys attribute are not generated 
?


Thank you very much!

Alexandre Beaupré
