Subject: krb4 ftp fails in passive mode
Download (untitled) / with headers
text/plain 1.6KiB
FTP with krb4 fails in passive mode. (See transcript below.) The error
is that the server's encrypted data sent on passive data connections
has the IP address 0.0.0.0 instead of the actual IP address of the
server; as a result, when the client tries to decrypt the data using
krb_rd_priv, IP check fails (because the check is being done against
the correct server IP address provided by the client), and krb_rd_priv
returns AP_MODIFIED.
