[OpenAFS-devel] Testing: how to generate random valid KeyFile without kerberos

[Troy Benjegerdes]

I'm attempting to automate creation of a new cell in a VM,
and I'd like to be able to create a random KeyFile without ever
using Kerberos.

I can't seem to get it to work right (bos communications fail),
so I'm wondering if someone has a working example of this.


root@amd64:~# asetkey add 1 "deadbeefbabeb00b"=20
root@amd64:~# bos_util list=20
kvno    0: key is '=EF=BF=BD=EF=BF
                       ' '\336\255\276\357\272\276\260\013'=20
kvno    1: key is '=EF=BF=BD=EF=20
                       ' '\336\255\276\357\272\276\260\013'=20
All done.=20


I get errors like this:


root@amd64:~# bos status -localauth -server localhost
In tkt_MakeTicket: key_sched returned -1=20
bos: running unauthenticated=20
bos: failed to contact host's bosserver (communications failure (-1)).
