Starting the Security Server

Once the Kerberos database has been created and the administrative

principals set up, you are ready to start the Kerberos daemons on the

Primary Security Server.

To do this, edit the /etc/rc.config.d/krbsrv ﬁle to reﬂect the

following values:

KDC = 1

ADMD = 1

Type, /sbin/init.d/krbsrv start

You can also start the kerberos daemons by typing:

# /opt/krb5/sbin/kdcd

# /opt/krb5/sbin/kadmind

You can verify that the daemons have started properly by checking for

their startup messages in the system log ﬁles.

A common error message returned by these programs is “Address

already in use”. This message indicates that the kdcd or kadmind is

conﬁgured to use a port that is already being used by another program.

Since the KDC uses the well-known port 88, this error most likely

indicates that a previous instance of the KDC is still running.
