Description Bill Nottingham 2004-03-10 18:59:39 UTC
Gets 'incorrect password'.

Error is:

pam_krb5: authentication fails for 'root' (root):
Authentication failure (Cannot resolve network address for KDC in
requested realm)

Why would enforcing mode cause it to look up root in kerberos?


Expected results:

What versions of anything?  Clean install?

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2004-03-11 15:16:28 UTC
Clean install of yesterday, upgraded to 1.8-5. coreutils-5.2.0-8.
Still happens.

Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2004-03-11 15:20:04 UTC
Seems to be a krb5 thing.  Doesn't happen without it configured.

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2004-03-11 19:28:15 UTC
Any avc messages?

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2004-03-11 20:47:01 UTC
Only the gconv-modules ones.


Comment 7 Bill Nottingham 2004-03-11 20:48:39 UTC
Aha. In permissive mode:

{read} exe=/bin/su name=krb5.conf scontext=:user_u:user_r:user_su_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:krb5_conf_t
