What is KRB5KDC
I have 10.5.2 installed on my Mac Pro and have the Firewall set to Specific Services and Applications. Whenever I turn on the Mac Pro, I get a question from the firewall regarding whether to allow incoming connections to KRB5KDC or not. I have clicked both No and Yes and then deleted it from the Firewall Preference pane. I haven't figured out what this service or application is and whether it is legitimate or not.
Though I have all of the same software installed on a Macbook running 10.5.2 with the same settings, it never asks about KRB5KDC.
Does anyone know what this is and whether it is safe (or recommended) to allow it?
As a side note, I sometimes get asked about DNSresponder as well. I allows allow that, but it never shows up in the Firewall preference pane, which means I have to allow it again the next time I start up. Is this normal behavior?
