I am lost in krb5.conf While configuring, I don't know what to replace in these EXAMPLE.NET and yourdomaincontroller.example.net Code: [logging] default = FILE:/var/log/krb5.log kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmin.log [libdefaults] default_realm = EXAMPLE.NET dns_lookup_realm = false dns_lookup_kdc = true ticket_lifetime = 24000 [realms] EXAMPLE.NET = { kdc = yourdomaincontroller.example.net admin_server = yourdomaincontroller.example.net default_domain = EXAMPLE.NET } [domain_realm] .example.net = EXAMPLE.NET example.net = EXAMPLE.NET
I have tried replacing with my localhost name Code: leow-desktop after krb5 configuration, then testing here is what I got: Code: root@leow-desktop:/home/leow# kinit Administrator@leow-desktop kinit(v5): Cannot contact any KDC for realm 'leow-desktop' while getting initial credentials
There is a difference between the hostname and the fully qualified hostname. leow-desktop is the hostname but not necessarily the fully qualified hostname (even though it is possible). What does the command hostname -f give you ? if you have something like leow-desktop.localdomain try with this, I think kerberos uses the fully qualified domain name.

Cuz I have messed with the original one. Must we own a domain to configure this file? My hostname -f gives me leow-desktop, same as hostname gives me leow-desktop.
I'm repeating unanswered question. Can anyone at least confirm if my hostname isn't usable or I need a purchased domain name? Sorry, newbie here. Thanks..
