OK.

I do not have a kdc.conf but attached krb5.conf. My application is to
authenticate users on a Debian machine to users maintained in ADS.
I took over the values from some other host that can do the
authentication but kadmin has the same problem. May be I do not even
need a working kadmin in this application. I was just following a
howto that started with getting kadmin working.
Kind regards
Andreas.
