Authentication against MIT Kerberos on RHEL clone

Hello,
 
Does anybody know how to configure ASO to authenticate against MIT Kerberos.  
 
I successfully install MIT Kerberos and LDAP on localhost (CentOS 5). The Kerberos and LDAP is working.  
 
I follow up the Oracle instructions on (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14268/asokerb. htm#ASOAG060)
 
I'am able to use all Oracle's Kerberos tools such as okinit, oklist, etc. But I'm not able to use sqlplus (sqlplus /@SID). The connect ends up with the : ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed
    Cause: The authentication service failed to retrieve the credentials of a user.
    Action: Enable tracing to determine the exact error.
 
I think that problem is in the sqlnet.ora configuration.
 
Here is the sqlnet.ora.
 
SQLNET.KERBEROS5_REALMS = /etc/krb5.conf
 
SQLNET.KERBEROS5_CC_NAME = /tmp/krb5cc_501
 
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (BEQ, KERBEROS5)
 
TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = SUPPORT
 
TRACE_UNIQUE_CLIENT = on
 
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
 
TRACE_LEVEL_SERVER = SUPPORT
 
SQLNET.KERBEROS5_CONF = /etc/krb5.conf
 
SQLNET.KERBEROS5_CONF_MIT = TRUE
 
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_KERBEROS5_SERVICE = Kservice
 
Thanks in advance.

Yes of course,
 
There were two problems.  
1. Service name - i was not sure which value is correct, so from the KDC log i get the name for service. I have case sensitive host name and in the KDC log was lowercase. Therefore i re-create the principal with the correct host name
 
2. Encryption key compatibility - Oracle supports only the DES-CBC-CRC. So I re-create the principal for service with this key and also when exporting keytab for service I specify the DES-CBC-CRC.

Hi,
 
I have comment regarding the used version. The problem mention here was in 10g.  
 
When I try the same with 11g there is also some problem. I set up the configuration in the same way as for 10g, but the connection end with another interesting error Smiley
 
ORA-01637: Packet receive failed.
 
In 11g docs there is some comment regarding this error but in another context.
 
After upgrading from a 32-bit version of Oracle Database, the first use of the Kerberos authentication adapter causes an error message: ORA-01637: Packet receive failed.
 
Workaround: After upgrading to the 64-bit version of the database and before using Kerberos external authentication method, check for a file named /usr/tmp/oracle_service_name.RC on your computer, and remove it.

The problem was with the FQDN of the host in the /etc/hosts
