Bug in kadmin

[Andreas Haupt <andreas.haupt@desy.de>]

Hi,

I'm a bit confused about how remote kadmin determines the user to
authenticate for admin operations. From the kadmin manpage:

-p string, --principal=string
             principal to authenticate as

That's the reality with Heimdal 1.0.1:

[brutus-vm10] ~ # /usr/heimdal/sbin/kadmin --principal=bla/admin list
ahaupt
root/admin@IFH.DE's Password: 
kadmin: get ahaupt: Incorrect password

Why does it ask for root/admin's password. I explicitly told it to use
another admin principal. I don't want to use the "workaround":

[brutus-vm10] ~ # kinit foo
Password for foo@IFH.DE: 
[brutus-vm10] ~ # /usr/heimdal/sbin/kadmin --principal=bla/admin list
ahaupt
bla/admin@IFH.DE's Password: 
ahaupt
[brutus-vm10] ~ # kdestroy
[brutus-vm10] ~ # /usr/heimdal/sbin/kadmin --principal=bla/admin list
ahaupt
root/admin@IFH.DE's Password: 

Stupid, isn't it?

Cheers,
Andreas
