Managing krb5.conf via smart parameters of foreman does not work for me.

[leo21212121212]

Hi , Can you please help me with figuring out what I am doing wrong?
I am trying to add
default_tkt_enctypes = aes256-cts rc4-hmac
default_tgs_enctypes = aes256-cts rc4-hmac
to krb5.conf as otherwise it would not allow to talk to DC due to unsupported encryption type.

As you see it doesn't apply conf from smart variables.

Thank you.

Had to d a fork and modify
join/password.pp to add this:

$_krb_config_file = $::realmd::krb_config_file
$_krb_config = $::realmd::krb_config
$_manage_krb_config = $::realmd::manage_krb_config

$_krb_config_final = deep_merge({'libdefaults' => {'default_realm' => upcase($::domain)}}, $_krb_config)

if $_manage_krb_config {
file { 'krb_configuration':
ensure => file,
path => $_krb_config_file,
owner => 'root',
group => 'root',
mode => '0644',
content => template('realmd/krb5.conf.erb'),
}
}

Thanks for this. Was exactly the fix I needed for my environment.
