[Bug 1885024] Re: systemd patch fixes: krb5kdc.log Read-only file system

[Sam Hartman]

This is possibly a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freeipa/+bug/1874915 at least if you are using freeipa.
As shipped, krb5-kdc does not log to /var/log, but instead logs to syslog
My position is that since krb5's systemd configuration is correct for the shipped configuration, if you reconfigure your krb5-kdc to log somewhere, you should at that point reconfigure the systemd unit to permit writing to that log.
I point to the freeipa bug because freeipa reconfigures this for you but does not update the systemd configuration.
