Installing and Configuring the Kerberos Login Method for NMAS

The Kerberos Login method for Novell Modular Authentication Services^TM (NMAS) enables a user to authenticate to eDirectory^TM using Kerberos tickets.

This method assumes that you already have a Kerberos KDC running on the network. If you do not have one, you must install and configure a Kerberos KDC (MIT, Microsoft AD, or Heimdal KDC) for this method to work.

The Kerberos Login Method for NMAS contains the following components:

• NMAS Kerberos Login Server Method (LSM): Installed on the eDirectory server that has the NMAS Server already installed.

• Novell Kerberos LDAP Extensions: Installed on all the servers that are used for administering the Kerberos Login Method for NMAS.

• iManager Plug-in for NMAS Kerberos: Lets you manage the Kerberos objects and attributes.

• NMAS Kerberos Login Client Method (LCM): Installed along with the Novell Client^TM and NMAS client on the Windows* workstations. This must be installed on each Windows workstation that will use the Kerberos Login Method for NMAS.
