I still have no clue what's going on.

In my attempt to find out what's happening, I found out I haven't done 
neither 4.23.1 nor 4.23.2 in the Heimdal guide ( 
http://www.h5l.org/manual/HEAD/info/heimdal/Setting-up-PK_002dINIT.html )
So I tried 4.23.2 i.e.:

kadmin modify --pkinit-acl="CN=myuser,O=mycompany,C=GR" 
myuser at SERVER.CENTOSDOMAIN

and I received this error:

kadmin: invalid option -- '-'


I then tried to do:

kadmin

to get into interactive mode so I can issue the modify command but I 
receive this error:

Authenticating as principal Administrator/admin at SERVER.CENTOSDOMAIN with 
password.
kadmin: Client not found in Kerberos database while initializing kadmin 
interface

I was puzzled with the Administrator/admin so next I tried:

kadmin -p Administrator at SERVER.CENTOSDOMAIN

with yet another error:

Authenticating as principal Administrator at SERVER.CENTOSDOMAIN with password.
kadmin: Database error! Required KADM5 principal missing while 
initializing kadmin interface


I also tried enabling debugging by using the instructions in 
http://www.h5l.org/manual/HEAD/info/heimdal/Debugging-Kerberos-problems.html 
but I don't see any error messages


1) How can I enable debugging? I'm on CentOS 6.2
2) According to the above, does it look like my installation is broken? 
Or is there something I am missing?


Kind Regards,
Charalampos

Which certificate you mean?
myuser.pem or the Kerberos certificate?
