The [logging] section is for krb5kdc and kadmind, which are not part of
the Windows build.

If you want to use trace logging, just set the KRB5_TRACE environment
variable to a filename.

Hey all, I am looking into using Kerberos for Windows in a POC I am doing.
I am having trouble getting logging to work, all other settings in my INI
are working correctly. I have started procmon to check if something is
going on with access and it appears nothing is even attempting to access
the file path I have defined. There are a few examples I have found
through searches, none of them seem to work. I have tried the following
(folder exists), nothing seems to work, any help would be appreciated.

[logging]
default = FILE:C:\Temp\Logs\MITKerberos\krb5libs.log

[logging]
default = FILE:"C:\Temp\Logs\MITKerberos\krb5libs.log"

[logging]
default = C:\Temp\Logs\MITKerberos\krb5libs.log

[logging]
default = "C:\Temp\Logs\MITKerberos\krb5libs.log"

[logging]
default = 'C:\Temp\Logs\MITKerberos\krb5libs.log'

Along with some variants of SYSLOG:INFO, though I cannot find a windows example.

If someone could let me know if logging on Windows is supported it would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Patrick

Ahh, that explains it, thank you very much Greg! I was hoping to get
warning / error level events (i.e. failure to renew a ticket / init). After seeing a few examples of it in win.ini config online I thought there was
hope. Thanks again for allowing me to stop this wild goose chase!
