Installing Kerberos in Linux/Ubuntu at UCSC

This has been verified to work with Ubuntu 12.04. Also with LMDE UP4.

Install the following packages (with synaptic or apt-get):

    krb5-clients (not needed?)
    krb5-config
    krb5-user
    libpam-krb5
    ntp

It will ask you to enter the following parameters:

Name Value
Default realm CATS.UCSC.EDU
Primary KDC kerberos.ucsc.edu:88
Administrative server kerberos.ucsc.edu:749

Edit the file /etc/krb5.conf (e.g. sudo vi /etc/krb5.conf) and insert this line under the [libdefaults] section:

    allow_weak_crypto = true

and this line under the realms/CATS.UCSC.EDU section:

    default_domain = ucsc.edu

You should now be able to use kinit to get kerberos tickets.
