Kerberos and Open Directory Setup
I entered in to a new IT position, and I inherited an intel-based Xserve with 10.5.4 on it.
Currently the company is still using their old Xserve 10.4 on it. My job is to migrate to the new server.
Parts of the new server are configured, but whoever set it up set the system's open directory options to Standalone mode.
I've spent a while reading threads at various sites, but I have not come across a set of good, clear instructions on how to setup and start Kerberos.
Under the System Admin > Open Directory...
LDAP Server is: Running
Password Server: Running
Kerberos is: Stopped
DNS is working properly.
[code]hostname[/code] gives the proper information (ie - not ".local")
[code]host ip_address_here[/code] and [code]host server_name[/code] resolve properly.
Under Server Admin > Open Directory > Settings > General, I do not have a "Kerberize" option. There is only a "Add Kerberos Record" button. I attempted to use the "Add Kerberos Record" button, but the fields it prompts me for are very vague.
Note 1:
I'm only setting this all up, because according to the literature I read, I can't properly setup Wiki and Blog functionality on the xserve unless I setup Open Directory and Kerberos. This is highly irritating, but oh well.
Note 2:
For our network, we want people to log on to their local machines with their own user names and passwords (everyone here is on laptops). However, we have a lot of AFPs, so we need people to have to login through the server for that.
