Why not use the native Solaris Kerberos?
Second, you need to be very, very careful when following the manual
instructions for configuring an MIT KDC. Double check that.
Third, sometimes the native Solaris truss command can be useful in
seeing what is wrong with a user space program. One quick way of using
it is to do:
truss -o /tmp/truss.out -u:: -fea kadmind
and look through the truss.out for functions that appear to be returning
error codes. One thing that can confuse is the fact that truss reports
some random return code for functions that return void i.e. have no
return value. 'man truss' has more info.
