Sun Directory Server Enterprise Edition 7.0 Administration Guide

ProcedureTo Configure Kerberos V5 on a Host

You must configure Kerberos V5 on the host machine where your LDAP clients will run.

You cannot use DSCC to perform this task. Use the command line, as described in this procedure.

  1. Install Kerberos V5 according to its installation instructions.

    Sun recommends installing the Sun Enterprise Authentication Mechanism 1.0.1 client software.

  2. Configure the Kerberos software.

    Using the Sun Enterprise Authentication Mechanism software, configure the files under /etc/krb5. This configuration sets up the kdc server, and defines the default realm and any other configuration required by your Kerberos system.

  3. If necessary, modify the file /etc/gss/mech so that the first value that is listed is kerberos_v5 .
