Description of problem: On a system with no 'default_realm' set in /etc/krb5.conf, where one is set in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf, authconfig won't write the value to /etc/krb5.conf unless the user changes it from the value that's already set in sssd.conf, even when sssd isn't being used. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): authconfig-6.1.4-6.el6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run /usr/sbin/authconfig --updateall --enablekrb5 \ --enablekrb5realmdns --enablekrb5kdcdns --enablecache \ --enableshadow --enablemd5 --enablenis --nisdomain=redhat.com \ --nisserver=ns1.bos.redhat.com --krb5realm=REDHAT.COM \ --krb5kdc=kerberos.bos.redhat.com \ --krb5adminserver=kerberos.corp.redhat.com 2. Remove the default_realm setting from /etc/krb5.conf 3. Run authconfig-tui and step through every screen until it exits. Actual results: /etc/krb5.conf doesn't have a default_realm setting added to it. Expected results: It probably should have gotten one. Additional info: Jeff was actually the person who ran into this, so I'm CCing him.
