Markus, I do get a password prompt although I don't remember setting a password for it. xserve:~ root# kinit HTTP/proxyserver.paragould.psd Please enter the password for HTTP/proxyserver.paragould.psd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: Kerberos Login Failed: Password incorrect In Open Directory, I just added a new machine(what I assumed was a host principal) named proxyserver but adding a machine via OD's workgroup manager doesn't ask for a password that I can remember. I didn't add an actual user named proxyserver because that didn't make sense to me for a host.
