Before you begin the setup of the Novell Kerberos KDC for ZENworks DLU, you need to know the following:
Time synchronization is required to be able to have a working Kerberos environment, make sure that the workstation time varies no more that five minutes from the server time.
The Kerberos configuration file is located at /etc/krb5.conf.
Kerberos credentials must stay in sync with eDirectory credentials in order to authenticate the user.
Similar to Active Directory, there is a two step process used for preparing an end user account for Kerberos. Just as in Active Directory, you need to manually add the user principal to the server and then you need to add the workstation principal to the server. In Active Directory this is done when a workstation is added to the domain. With the Novell KDC, you need to use ksetup.exe to configure the workstation and then use kadmin.local (installed with the Novell KDC) to add it to the server using a process similar to adding a user principal.
Commands are case sensitive. Make sure the commands are entered correctly.
