I've done 1,2,3 many times. 4 always fails. I realize you didn't ask for the info about allow_weak_crypto. I included it because it seems to me that it's a telling bit of info. <div class="gmail_quote"> On Wed, Mar 27, 2013 at 9:50 AM, Simo Sorce <<a href="mailto:simo@redhat.com" target="_blank">simo@redhat.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> I didn't ask to run ipa-getkeytab, can you do the following: 1. login to a linux client 2. change the user password as an admin 3. kinit as the user (and perform the password change as it will be requested) 4. go to the solaris box and now try the kinit using the new password Does step 4 work if you do 1,2,3 ? Or does it keep segfaulting ? The difference when allow_weak_crypto is false is that des keys are not produced, so an AS REQ reply will return to the client with a list of encryption types that do not include des as a valid algorithm. Maybe your kinit client is choking on that ? You can change the default encryption types used to generate new password, (changing allow_weak_crypto is not sufficient for that) in FreeIPA by adding the desired enctypes in the krbDefaultEncSaltTypes multivalued attribute in entry named: cn=<REALMNAME>,cn=Kerberos,<yoursuffix> The current defaults for new installs do *not* include DES as it is a broken algorithm for security at this point.
