several new kerberos related libraries and applications to FreeBSD:
o kgetcred(1) allows one to manually get a ticket for a particular service.
o kf(1) securily forwards ticket to another host through an authenticated
and encrypted stream.
o kcc(1) is an umbrella program around klist(1), kswitch(1), kgetcred(1)
and other user kerberos operations. klist and kswitch are just symlinks
to kcc(1) now.
o kswitch(1) allows you to easily switch between kerberos credentials if
you're running KCM.
o hxtool(1) is a certificate management tool to use with PKINIT.
o string2key(1) maps a password into key.
o kdigest(8) is a userland tool to access the KDC's digest interface.
o kimpersonate(8) creates a "fake" ticket for a service.
We also now install manpages for some lirbaries that were not installed
before, libheimntlm and libhx509.
- The new HEIMDAL version no longer supports Kerberos 4. All users are
recommended to switch to Kerberos 5.
- Weak ciphers are now disabled by default. To enable DES support (used
by telnet(8)), use "allow_weak_crypto" option in krb5.conf.
- libtelnet, pam_ksu and pam_krb5 are now compiled with error on warnings
disabled due to the function they use (krb5_get_err_text(3)) being
deprecated. I plan to work on this next.
- Heimdal's KDC now require sqlite to operate. We use the bundled version
and install it as libheimsqlite. If some other FreeBSD components will
require it in the future we can rename it to libbsdsqlite and use for these
components as well.
- This is not a latest Heimdal version, the new one was released while I was
working on the update. I will update it to 1.5.2 soon, as it fixes some
important bugs and security issues.

.Dt VERIFY_KRB5_CONF 8
|
|
.Os HEIMDAL
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm verify_krb5_conf
|
|
.Nd checks krb5.conf for obvious errors
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Ar [config-file]
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
reads the configuration file
|
|
.Pa krb5.conf ,
|
|
or the file given on the command line,
|
|
parses it, checking verifying that the syntax is not correctly wrong.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the file is syntactically correct,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
tries to verify that the contents of the file is of relevant nature.
|
|
.Sh ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.Ev KRB5_CONFIG
|
|
points to the configuration file to read.
|
|
.Sh FILES
|
|
.Bl -tag -width /etc/krb5.conf -compact
|
|
.It Pa /etc/krb5.conf
|
|
Kerberos 5 configuration file
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
Possible output from
|
|
.Nm
|
|
include:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "FpathF"
|
|
.It "<path>: failed to parse <something> as size/time/number/boolean"
|
|
Usually means that <something> is misspelled, or that it contains
|
|
weird characters. The parsing done by
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is more strict than the one performed by libkrb5, so strings that
|
|
work in real life might be reported as bad.
|
|
.It "<path>: host not found (<hostname>)"
|
|
Means that <path> is supposed to point to a host, but it can't be
|
|
recognised as one.
|
|
.It <path>: unknown or wrong type
|
|
Means that <path> is either a string when it should be a list, vice
|
|
versa, or just that
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is confused.
|
|
.It <path>: unknown entry
|
|
Means that <string> is not known by
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SEE ALSO
|
|
.Xr krb5.conf 5
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Since each application can put almost anything in the config file,
|
|
it's hard to come up with a watertight verification process. Most of
|
|
the default settings are sanity checked, but this does not mean that
|
|
every problem is discovered, or that everything that is reported as a
|
|
possible problem actually is one. This tool should thus be used with
|
|
some care.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It should warn about obsolete data, or bad practice, but currently
|
|
doesn't.
