Package: libkrb5-25-heimdal Version: 1.2.dfsg.1-2.1 Severity: important Heimdal uses hostname instead of fqdn as realm name. I'm not a expert in kerberos but I think this is incorrect behavior.
For example, my host is db.h-----g.com, realm H-----G.COM and kerberos configured by DNS SRV records: sh-4.0# hostname db sh-4.0# hostname db sh-4.0# dnsdomainname h-----g.com sh-4.0# hostname -f db.h-----g.com sh-4.0# kinit norma kinit: krb5_parse_name: unable to find realm of host db sh-4.0# hostname db.h-----g.com sh-4.0# hostname db.h-----g.com sh-4.0# hostname -f db.h-----g.com sh-4.0# dnsdomainname h-----g.com sh-4.0# kinit norma no...@h-----g.com's Password: sh-4.0# The problem does not occur if in the /etc/hostname fqdn specified, but 'man hostname' says: "/etc/hostname This file should only contain domain name and not the full FQDN" My DNS SRV settings: $ dig srv _kerberos._udp.h-----g.com ; <<>> DiG 9.6.1-P1 <<>> srv _kerberos._udp.h-----g.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 23562 ;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 2 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;_kerberos._udp.h-----g.com.
