Which Arla version for Mac OS 10.3?

Hej Arla Drinkers!

We have a summer school student who is running Mac OS 10.3 and wants to 
install Arla, but is not sure which version goes best with 10.3.  (In 
particular, I believe she is running 10.3.9, but doesn't have the money 
to upgrade to 10.4.)  Which version would you recommend?  The answer 
wasn't clear to me from looking around on the Web.  I did see some mail 
from back in 2005 from Måns Nilsson using Arla 0.40 with OS X 10.3.9.

I personally use Arla 0.90 on OS X 10.4 at home and it works perfectly 
(even behind NAT).  However, I wasn't sure what would happen if she 
tried installing 0.90 under 10.3.

Thanks for the advice and the great software!
/Mike (PDC)

Supporting 10.4 required a lot of changes, so we ended up dropping support
for earlier MacOS versions in the rewrite (released as 0.41).

So arla-0.40 should work for 10.3, while arla-0.41 and later is 10.4 only.

Btw, if there are any recent 10.5 betas out there it would be interesting
to know how far current Arla is from working on that.

Arla auth problems on mac os 10.4

I'm trying to use arla 0.90 against an openafs server, if I use the openafs client it works fine but when I try with arla it will connect fine but it not authing properly as an user. How can I debug this? The only way (I can see) is putting a sniffer there and hope and pray to god that I can see useful data, which I doubt I will.

I would start by playing with the provided binaries (in /usr/arla/bin
IIRC), like kinit, klist -v, tokens, afslog.  I'm not sure what happens if
Arla and OpenAFS are active at the same time.  Is anything logged
(System.log maybe)?

tcpdump, WireShark etc are helpful sometimes, mostly for overview.
Actually, one can see a fair amount of info.  For the details I tend to end
up using source (heimdal's afslog libraries?) and gdb :)

I think you might not have kerberos tickets available for remodeling into
tokens. I am assuming here, that you are using some system-provided ticket
aquisition method, either loginwindow calling stuff or /usr/bin/kinit. 

I am not certain that arla will pick this up. Thomass suggested that you
look into things by using the heimdal subset shipped with arla; eg if
/usr/arla/bin/klist shows up empty, you might have a problem. I _think_
this is best solved by saying: 

[libdefaults]
        default_cc_name = API:

in /etc/krb5.conf -- but I might be in error.

Re: Which Arla version for Mac OS 10.3?

The user has had problems getting arla-0.40 to compile on her OS X 10.3 
machine.  We couldn't find a .dmg already built at Stacken.  Anyone have 
  such a build already made?

Best regards,
/Mike
