Description Tim Waugh 2008-10-27 17:52:10 UTC
Description of problem:
In order to have functioning Kerberos support in CUPS the krb5_cc_new_unique() function in krb5 must be fixed to avoid this bug:
  http://krbdev.mit.edu/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=5624

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
krb5-1.6.1-29.el5

Comment 3 Nalin Dahyabhai 2008-10-27 21:07:39 UTC
Note to self: also needs to incorporate fixes for RT#5708, which is a bit larger.

Tim tells me that the release notes for the cups update includes this nugget: "Note that this requires a recent version of MIT Kerberos with a working krb5_cc_new_unique() function or Heimdal Kerberos."

This program creates a new unique ccache, copies the contents of the default ccache into the new one, runs 'klist' for both, and then exits.
