Description of Problem: It would seem that chkconfig needs to be used for various entries to show up in /etc/init.d/ Doing a perusal of RPMS that didnt implement this I found: service kdcrotate supports chkconfig, but is not referenced in any runlevel (run 'chkconfig --add kdcrotate')
New feature of RH 8.0 not to add items that arent needed. Needs to be documented in updated RELEASE-NOTES or known issues. Let technical support add it to their DB. Thanks Bill Nottingham.
The problem below is probably related since it looks like a post-install script deficiency. I upgraded a stock 8.0 system to the latest patches and lost ssh login capability. I traced the problem to a lack of the krb5 library entries in /etc/ld.so.cache. sshd worked initially so I assume that the entries were there when the system was first installed. The assumption is that the rpm -F of the krb packages removed the entries and neglected to add the new entries. 'ldconfig /usr/kerberos/lib' got things going again.
Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc.

This should have been fixed a long time ago.. or at least an entry from the person at Red Hat that it was being looked at. I am closing because its not worth tracking anymore.
