GSSAPI authentication ceased working

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm currently setting up a new imap server to replace my old one.  
Yesterday I had GSSAPI authentication running, today it ceased working. 
I did quite some configuration in the meantime mostly on the LDAP 
server, but nothing I'd readily associate with cyrus-imap authentication.

I appreciate any ideas for more systematic troubleshooting.

The setup:
KDC and LDAP is a sever called hel. The KDC uses LDAP as backend.
Cyrus-Imap (v2.2.13-Debian-2.2.13-14+b3) runs on hermod.

What worked yesterday:

kinit cyrus
imtest -v -u cyrus -a cyrus -p imap -r MGR hermod.mgr
cyradm --user cyrus --auth GSSAPI --server hermod.mgr

What still works today:
kinit cyrus

Diagnostics:

hel: /var/log/syslog

Jan  2 16:07:54 hel last message repeated 3 times


What I tried:

Since "Decrypt integrity check failed" means "wrong password" I recreated the principal "imap/hermod.mgr" and replaced the keytab file with the new key. I also removed the ldapdb auxprop, which I had installed in the meantime, but nothing helped.
If I remove the ticket for cyrus, I receive:
Jan  2 17:13:36 hermod imtest: GSSAPI Error: Unspecified GSS failure.  Minor code may provide more information (No credentials cache found)
as I would expect.
