#5518 krb5.conf file generated by FreeIPA Client uses yes/no instead of true/false
Closed: Fixed Opened by mlbiam.

MIT's documentation specifies true/false, not yes/no for all boolean parameters but accepts yes/no. If an application is built per the documentation it will not work correctly. This issue affects Java:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8029995

Java will support yes/no in jdk 9


  • mkosek: we are using supported values. I think the resolution on the users list was to rather fix it on JDK side, than FreeIPA side? We do not want to do upgrade like this in existing krb5.conf anyway...
  • ab: we set to true/false in all other places in ipa-client-install/ipa-replica-conncheck but this one uses yes/no, so we should standardize on a single pair. No upgrade.
  • mkosek: then the fix can be 4.3.x...

ipa-4-3:

  • d5ff7bf76adcf6229bb1884c73c4aefac4e9eb25 krb5conf: use 'true' instead of 'yes' for forwardable option

master:

  • e0b9afded5baab4e6e0cca5dda5554924a59317a krb5conf: use 'true' instead of 'yes' for forwardable option
