Additional Information


Setting a Password for the Kerberos Service Principal

If the eDirectory service principal key has been reset in your KDC, you must update the key for this principal in eDirectory also.

For information on extracting the key, refer to Extracting the Key of the Service Principal for eDirectory.

For information on updating the key for this principal, refer to "Setting a Password for the Kerberos Service Principal" on page 22 of the Kerberos Login Method for NMAS Administration Guide.


Error Messages

The Kerberos LSM error messages are displayed in the Directory Services Trace (DSTrace) or NMASMon (on NetWare only). The error messages are prefixed with NMASKRB.

For example, NMAS: 0: NMASKRB: Unable to accept the context from the eDirectory user FDN.

To capture an NMAS trace using iMonitor, DSTRACE.NLM and NMASMON.NLM, refer to How to capture an NMAS Server trace.
