ProcedureTo Configure the Kerberos System

Configure the Kerberos software according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If you are using the Sun Enterprise Authentication Mechanism 1.0.1 server, use this procedure.

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

  1. Configure the files in /etc/krb5.

  2. Create the Kerberos database for storing users and services.

  3. In the database, create the Principal for the LDAP service.


    $ ldap/server-FQDN@realm
    

    where server-FQDN is the fully qualified domain name of your Directory Server.

  4. Start the Kerberos daemon processes.


    Note –

    The DNS must be configured on the host machine.


    Refer to your software documentation for detailed instructions for each of these steps. Also, see Example Configuration of Kerberos Authentication Using GSSAPI With SASL.
