Connect to SMB share password prompting

[tpat]

My OS X machine is bound to our AD and I can successfully connect to SMB shares from the Finder without entering a password. However, anytime I attempt to connect to a share on this one server, I am prompted for a password. After entering my password, the share is mounted just fine. It’s not a big deal, just more of an annoyance. Here are the pertinent error messages:

2/25/09 3:41:44 PM gssd-agent[2774] Error returned by svc_mach_gss_init_sec_context:

2/25/09 3:41:44 PM gssd-agent[2774] Major error <1> Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may provide more information

2/25/09 3:41:44 PM gssd-agent[2774] Minor error <1> Unknown Error Code: -1765328377

2/25/09 3:41:44 PM gssd-agent[2774] Minor error <1> Unknown Error Code: -1765328377

There isn’t anything special about this server. It’s a standard setup of Windows Server 2003.

Any ideas? Thanks

Did you have this resolved yet? If not, here’s some info about the error you encountered:

Error Code: -1765328377 translates to

#define KRB5KDC_ERR_S_PRINCIPAL_UNKNOWN (-1765328377L)

in krb5.h header file.

You will need to check your servicePrincipalName attribute values using ADSI Edit MMC on your Server to make sure it contains the “cifs/…..” value shown in your system.log. Hope this helps.
