Hello.
I wonder if someone can help me.
I am trying to connect using SQLplus + Kerberos + Red hat and I am getting the following error:
ORA-12641: Authentication service failed to initialize
My credential cache is confirmed good as I have tested it on my Windows machine using SQL developer.
I enabled tracing and it looks like the connection is failing here:

The /etc/krb5.conf file exists and I have also tested this exact file on my Windows machine with SQL developer and it works fine. The permissions are also good on the file.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Any help would be appreciated.
