Kerberos Server and Windows 2000
Interoperability
Following are the possible interrealm interoperability scenarios between
the Kerberos server software and Windows 2000, each with its own
configuration requirements.
Scenario 1
A Windows 2000 user needs access to services in a Kerberos server
realm. Here, the Kerberos server realm is the target realm and the
Windows 2000 domain is the source realm. The Kerberos server must
trust the Windows 2000 domain controller to perform secure
authentication.
Scenario 2
A Kerberos server principal needs access to services in a Windows 2000
domain. Here, the Windows 2000 domain is the target realm and the
Kerberos server realm is the source realm. The Windows 2000 domain
controller must trust the Kerberos server to perform secure
authentication.
Scenario 3
The Kerberos server principals and Windows 2000 users must access
services in the realm or domain. Two-way trust must exist between the
Kerberos server and the Windows 2000 domain controller.
