HP CIFS Server Administrator Guide Version A.03.01.03 (5900-2006, October 2011)

Table Of Contents

NOTE: You must configure the port number :88 after the node name specified for the kdc

entry in the [realms]section. Kerberos v5 uses the port number 88 for the KDC service.

For detailed information on how to configure the /etc/krb5.conf file, refer to the

krb5.conf(4) man page.

3. Run the following commands to verify Kerberos configuration

kinit <user> (e.g. Administrator@myrealm.xyz.com) (add user and password to a Windows

ADS DC if necessary)

The possible errors during verification are as follows:

• Pre-Authentication Failed means you have typed the password incorrectly.

• Clock skew too great means the time on the HP-UX machine is not synchronized

with the Windows domain controller. Execute the date command to reset the date or set

TZ=GMT and try again.

• You may see the warning message, kinit: KDC has no support for encryption

type while getting initial credentials. You must change your Administrator

password at least once from the original password that you used for Administrator when

installing your Windows 2000/2003 Domain.

This warning message is also displayed when you do not have appropriate encryption

methods set in the /etc/krb5.conf file.

• Check the content of the /etc/krb5.conf file for syntax or content errors and ensure

that port :88 has been added to the kdc entry in the [Realms] section.

4. Use the following procedures to configure the HP CIFS Server:

• For new installations, you can run /opt/samba/bin/samba_setup and choose ADS

Member Server.

For new installations, finish samba_setup commands and verify the following smb.conf

configuration items. samba_setup will then perform the "net ads join -U

Administrator%password" command to join the ADS domain for you.

[global]

workgroup = MYREALM # Domain Name

realm = MYREALM.XYZ.COM

security = ADS

domain master = no

encrypt passwords = yes

password server = adsdc.myrealm.xyz.com

netbios name = MYSERVER

• For existing installations, modify smb.conf configuration items as follows:
