When attempting to join to a domain the following error is reported, and the join fails.
++++++++++++++++++++++
ERROR: Could not authenticate as userxxx
VAS_ERR_KRB5: Kerberos error
Failed to obtain credentials. Client: userxxx@EXAMPLE.SUBDOMAIN.EXAMPLE.COM, Service: krbtgt/ EXAMPLE.SUBDOMAIN.EXAMPLE.COM @ EXAMPLE.SUBDOMAIN.EXAMPLE.COM, Server: host.example.subdomain.example.com
Caused by:
KRB5_PROG_ETYPE_NOSUPP (-1765328234): Program lacks support for encryption type
Reason: no valid enctype set
++++++++++++++++++++++
Unix servers already joined, are working after setting:
# /opt/quest/bin/vastool configure vas libdefaults default_etypes aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96 aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96
Please check with your AD team what encryption types are valid for your environment.
RESOLUTION 1:
It is possible to specify these etypes before a join, just run the following configure command to successfully join the domain.
# /opt/quest/bin/vastool configure vas libdefaults default_etypes aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96 aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96
