Authentication error: Failed reading application request
Can anyone help me shed some light on this error?
I've got OpenAFS using an MIT Kerberos server with LDAP running and
everything is great except we are unable to change our passwords via
kpasswd (the MIT version). To be truthful, I don't even know where to
begin.
Any help would be great,

Perhaps you are behind a NAT. The Kerberos Change Password protocol
uses channel bindings and if you are behind a NAT the bindings will
be wrong.

Re: Authentication error: Failed reading application request
Thanks for the reponse Jeffrey, it ended up being a baddly configured
KDC, I created the KDC based upon a HOW-TO that said to use -e
des-cbc-crc:normal while creating the database and user
accounts.(everything worked except kpasswd) Then I started from scratch
without the above and everything works perfect. LDAP,Kerberos,OpenAFS,
and kpasswd works now.
Again thanks for the response.
