Kerberos Authentication Tasks
Kerberos is a network authentication protocol. It is designed to provide secure authentication for client/
server applications by using secret keys delivered with session tickets.
Before following the steps outlined here, you must have completed the following steps:
1. Install the Microsoft LDP tool.
2. Discover the LDAP server.
3. Set up LDP.
Initializing Kerberos authentication
Follow these steps to initialize Kerberos Authentication for your product.
NOTE Embedded Kerberos Authentication uses session tickets in the authentication process.
The session tickets are time stamped by both the Kerberos Domain Controller (KDC) and the
product. It is essential that the stamped times are within five minutes of each other. This can be
accomplished by setting identical time on both the KDC and product.
1. Open the HP EWS in a web browser.
2. Select the Settings tab, and then Kerberos Authentication.
