problem with kerberized ssh

Description (last modified by mf2k (Frank Schima))

This problem occurs only in a very specific situation. It results in a failure if you try to login using ssh with a kerberos ticket. The situation:

krb5.conf has noaddresses = false, and doesn't list a kdc. In this situation Kerberos will discover the KDC from DNS. The discovery works fine for kinit. But if you try ssh you get an error. This error does not occur with noaddresses true, or if the kdc is specified. This problem does not occur with the same versions of kerberos and openssh on Linux.

Can you re-test if this is still the case with the newest version (8.1p1_0)?

Rekeying was broken for quite some time, so maybe this issue is magically fixed now.
