Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1063850 +++
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4167
Upstream has changed the default OTP socket search directory:
https://github.com/krb5/krb5/pull/45
This code will be available in 1.13 by default. We will probably update this change in krb5 1.12 (and maybe 1.11). FreeIPA will need to respect this default. And any update in krb5 which makes this change needs to be synchronized with FreeIPA.
As discussed in a triage meeting, this Bugzilla shall be tested as sanity only. It is a forward looking precaution, to avoid this backwards incompatible change after 7.0.
Testing note: this change also requires that we create and own /var/run/krb5kdc, and because /run is created fresh at boot-time we've added configuration to trigger its creation on reboot. Please also verify that a) the directory exists after we install the new krb5-server package fresh and b) that it is there again when the system is booted, whether or not the krb5kdc service is started.

Apart if this I can also verify that the KDC connects to a test unix socket (created by socat) on the new location and if the socket name can be configured. Of course I won't be able to check the sanity of of the communication over the socket, but that will be checked later by IPA when the time comes.
I think it will be sufficient test for now. Should you have other ideas, please let me know.
