[SSSD-users] kinit: Client not found in Kerberos database

[Bryan Harris]

Hello all,

I was wondering if someone would be able to help me track down where I went wrong with a
2008 R2 AD > Linux sssd configuration.  I am following the guide "Configuring sssd
to authenticate with a Windows 2008 Domain Server" found on the sssd website on
fedorahosted.org.  Here is the
link: https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/Configuring%20sssd%20to%20authen...

I'm at the step where I run kinit -k CLIENT$(a)AD.EXAMPLE.COM.  Unfortunately it's
not working for me.
When I run the command on the client I get this:
kinit: Client not found in Kerberos database while getting initial credentials
The Windows server is running Windows 2008 R2, for forest functional level I selected 2008
R2.  The Linux server is running Debian 6.0.8.  The version of sssd is 1.2.1-4+squeeze1.

Here is my output from klist -ke :
root@client:~# klist -ke
Keytab name: WRFILE:/etc/krb5.keytab
KVNO Principal
---- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
   5 host/server.domain.local(a)DOMAIN.LOCAL (DES cbc mode with CRC-32)
   5 host/server.domain.local(a)DOMAIN.LOCAL (DES cbc mode with RSA-MD5)
   5 host/server.domain.local(a)DOMAIN.LOCAL (ArcFour with HMAC/md5)
   5 host/server.domain.local(a)DOMAIN.LOCAL (AES-256 CTS mode with 96-bit SHA-1 HMAC)
   5 host/server.domain.local(a)DOMAIN.LOCAL (AES-128 CTS mode with 96-bit SHA-1 HMAC)


I had a similar problem a while back, and I even mailed the list for help. In that case
however, I was able to get things to work by simply re-running the setspn and ktpass
commands.  However, that workaround is not fixing the issue this time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
