Hi there,
I just installed a krb5 server on a scientific linux box.
I then have tested the basics:
# kadmin -p user
Authenticating as principal user with password.
Password for user@REALM:
kadmin: quit
this is ok!
# kinit user
Password for user@REALM:password_in_clear_text_here!
New ticket is stored in cache file /tmp/krb5cc_0
ooops!
is this normal?
anyway, how to force kinit to hide/scramble the typed in password?
thanks,

Please check which kinit you use.
$> which kinit
If it is the java one then this is a known problem. Please make sure that you
use the kinit from your kerberos package.

bingo!
# which kinit
/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_11/bin/kinit
I suspected something as simple as that, but my google search didn't
point at it, so thank you very much for the tip!
# kdestroy
# /usr/kerberos/bin/kinit user
Password for user@REALM:
# klist
Credentials cache: /tmp/krb5cc_0
Default principal: user@REALM, 1 entry found.
now everything's OK!
