After the recent upgrade I noticed some of my scripts were failing,
and three machines all using the same krb5.conf (and ldap backend) were
returning different answers for kadmin list (three different realms)!

It took quite a bit of playing, getting nowhere before I wound up
stracing kadmind and found the problem.

With the new upstream, a patch apparently was not reworked, or a symlink
dropped ...

This following command fixed things for me
ln -sf /etc/heimdal-kdc/kdc.conf /var/lib/heimdal-kdc/kdc.conf
The following code in the postinst script should have avoided that:

# if not configured, try moving existing configuration

if [ ! -f /etc/heimdal-kdc/.configured ] &&

  [   -f /var/lib/heimdal-kdc/.configured ]

then

       for i in kdc.conf kadmind.acl

       do

               if [ -f /var/lib/heimdal-kdc/$i ]

               then

                       mv /var/lib/heimdal-kdc/$i /etc/heimdal-kdc/$i

               fi

       done

       mv /var/lib/heimdal-kdc/.configured /etc/heimdal-kdc/.configured

fi

I don't know why it didn't work for you.

It is possible that the log file and ACL file may not work though, without the following changed at the top of kdc.conf:

[kdc]

log_file = FILE:/var/log/heimdal-kdc.log

acl_file = FILE:/etc/heimdal-kdc/kadmind.acl


I had forgotten at the time that kdc.conf is not a conffile (historic reasons now, possibly should change that).
