After examining this further, I've found that the Kerberos add_principal operation in /usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/gosa-create actually fails. The script doesn't notice that since kadmin.local always returns an exit staus of 0: + kadmin.local -q 'add_principal -policy users -randkey -x "dn=uid=afoo,ou=people,ou=Students,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no" afoo' Authenticating as principal server-admin/admin@INTERN with password. add_principal: User modification failed: Type or value exists while creating "afoo@INTERN". In order to reproduce this more easily see the attached script, it is invoked as follows: debian-edu-add-user.sh 1010 afoo Alice Foo in order to create an example user afoo with the uid/gid 1010. -- Guido Berhoerster
