Also, this section in krb5.conf is not defined in the manpage for krb5.conf [kdc] and the "profile" parameter within it is also not defined in the manpage for krb5.conf
You should better ask on mit-krb5 email list for help. It is a bit unfortunate that many documents hanging on internet mix together heimdals /etc/krb5.conf syntax with mit-krb5 syntax. Mostly they are same but there are some differences ... in a quick search, there are MIT krb5 specific for kadmin section: [kadmin] default_keys = des:pw-salt v4 default_etypes = des-cbc-crc:normal des-cbc-crc:v4 des-cbc-crc: On the other hand, docs are not often up-to-date, so are you sure it not used? Any error messages? Please note I use heimdal so I know about mit krb5 just from people on openfs email lists. ;)
fixed, thanks.
