All of +these programs are in the directory <a class="reference internal" href="../mitK5defaults.html#paths"><em>BINDIR</em></a>.</p> +<p>You can often integrate Kerberos with the login system on client +machines, typically through the use of PAM. The details vary by +operating system, and should be covered in your operating system’s +documentation. If you do this, you will need to make sure your users +know to use their Kerberos passwords when they log in.</p> +<p>You will also need to educate your users to use the ticket management +programs kinit, klist, and kdestroy. If you do not have Kerberos +password changing integrated into the native password program (again, +typically through PAM), you will need to educate users to use kpasswd +in place of its non-Kerberos counterparts passwd.</p> +<div class="section" id="client-machine-configuration-files"> +<h2>Client machine configuration files<a class="headerlink" href="#client-machine-configuration-files" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> +<p>Each machine running Kerberos should have a <a class="reference internal" href="conf_files/krb5_conf.html#krb5-conf-5"><em>krb5.conf</em></a> file. +At a minimum, it should define a <strong>default_realm</strong> setting in +<a class="reference internal" href="conf_files/krb5_conf.html#libdefaults"><em>[libdefaults]</em></a>. If you are not using DNS SRV records +(<a class="reference internal" href="realm_config.html#kdc-hostnames"><em>Hostnames for KDCs</em></a>) or URI records (<a class="reference internal" href="realm_config.html#kdc-discovery"><em>KDC Discovery</em></a>), it must +also contain a <a class="reference internal" href="conf_files/krb5_conf.html#realms"><em>[realms]</em></a> section containing information for your +realm’s KDCs.</p> +<p>Consider setting <strong>rdns</strong> to false in order to reduce your dependence +on precisely correct DNS information for service hostnames. Turning +this flag off means that service hostnames will be canonicalized +through forward name resolution (which adds your domain name to +unqualified hostnames, and resolves CNAME records in DNS), but not +through reverse address lookup. The default value of this flag is +true for historical reasons only.</p> +<p>If you anticipate users frequently logging into remote hosts +(e.g., using ssh) using forwardable credentials, consider setting +<strong>forwardable</strong> to true so that users obtain forwardable tickets by +default. Otherwise users will need to use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">kinit</span> <span class="pre">-f</span></tt> to get +forwardable tickets.</p> +<p>Consider adjusting the <strong>ticket_lifetime</strong> setting to match the likely +length of sessions for your users. For instance, if most of your +users will be logging in for an eight-hour workday, you could set the +default to ten hours so that tickets obtained in the morning expire +shortly after the end of the workday. Users can still manually +request longer tickets when necessary, up to the maximum allowed by +each user’s principal record on the KDC.</p> +<p>If a client host may access services in different realms, it may be +useful to define a <a class="reference internal" href="conf_files/krb5_conf.html#domain-realm"><em>[domain_realm]</em></a> mapping so that clients know +which hosts belong to which realms. However, if your clients and KDC +are running release 1.7 or later, it is also reasonable to leave this +section out on client machines and just define it in the KDC’s +krb5.conf.</p> +</div> +</div>
