Mac OS X 10.5: Duplicate computer name alert when binding to Open Directory

When attempting to bind a client to Open Directory, a client may receive an alert that the computer already exists. Looking up the computer in Open Directory may return a duplicate "LDKC:SHA1" entry. This may occur when a system is installed from a NetInstall image that was created after the point in the Mac OS X install where the com.apple.kerberos.kdc certificate had been created; so each new imaged system has the same certificate and LKDC:SHA1 hash.

NAME
kdcsetup -- Kerberos -- Open Directory Single Sign On SYNOPSIS
kdcsetup [-v debug_level] [-a admin_name] [-p password] REALM DESCRIPTION
kdcsetup is a tool for configuring an Apple Open Directory KDC. It creates the needed Kerberos files and data for an Open Director master. -v debug_level Controls the amount of output generated by kdcsetup. 0 prints errors and very basic information. 1 prints generatal status information. Higher levels may add progressively more detail. -a admin_name Name of a directory administrator authorized to make changes in Open Directory. This admin will be used as the administrator in the KDC database. Required parameter. Note: this is not a principal name. -p password The password for the above admin. Required parameter. REALM The name of the realm that this KDC serves. Required parameter. FILES
/var/db/krb5kdc/ directory where all the config & database files for the KDC are stored /var/log/krb5kdc/ directory where the log files from the KDC are written NOTES
kdcsetup is automatically run when creating an Open Directory Master. It should NEVER be run manually and will likely be deprecated in the future. SEE ALSO
