.

Configuring Kerberos

5

Use Kerberos if you want extra security with remote authentication.
Make sure that both the library and the Kerberos/Active Directory

®

server are set to the same time (within 5 minutes). Otherwise, the

authentication will fail. It is recommended that you use Network Time

Protocol (NTP) to synchronize the time between the library and the

Kerberos server. See

Setting the Date and Time Using the Network Time

Protocol

on page 107.

Fill in the following Kerberos fields in addition to all the LDAP fields:

Realm

— The Kerberos realm name, typed in all uppercase letters.

Usually the realm name is the DNS domain name.
Example: MYCOMPANY.COM

KDC (AD Server)

— The key distribution center (in other words, the

server on which Kerberos/Active Directory is installed).
Example: mycompany.com:88

Domain Mapping

— The domain portion of the library’s fully qualified

domain name.
Example: mycompany.com

Service Keytab

— Click the

Browse

button to select the service keytab

file. The service keytab file is a file you generate on your

Kerberos/Active Directory server. See

Generating the Service Keytab

file

on page 105.

You can view, enable, and configure Kerberos settings from the Web

client. You cannot use the operator panel to configure Kerberos settings.

Note:

For step-by-step instructions on configuring LDAP on the

library, see your library’s online Help. To access the online

Help system, click the

Help

icon at the top right of the Web

client.
