[Freeipa-users] Kerberos authentication failed: kinit: Included profile directory could not be read while initializing Kerberos 5 library

[Alan Latteri]

Further investigation.

On a clean install of CentOS 7.2 with IPA Client 4.4, /etc/krb5.conf.d/ is missing, and therefore initial setup will fail unless manual creation of /etc/krb5.conf.d/
Maybe the install script for the client can be updated to check for and create?

Thanks,
Alan
