Configuring the Kerberos Server with LDAP

Planning Your LDAP Configuration

Planning Your LDAP Configuration

The following sections of this chapter describe how to plan and configure your Kerberos Server to work with the Directory server.

Before You Begin

Remember the following points when you plan your LDAP setup:

•Use the Configuration Worksheet (see Appendix A, “Configuration Worksheet,” on page 311) to record your decisions and other information that you need later for configuration.

•You must have an LDAP directory. You can obtain the Netscape Directory server 6.0 (J4258CA) for HP-UX from your local HP sales office or http://www.hp.com and view the documentation at http://docs.hp.com/hpux/internet/#Netscape%20Directory%20Server.

•See the white paper Preparing Your Directory for HP-UX Integration at http://docs.hp.com/hpux/internet for advice on how to set up and configure your directory to work with HP-UX.

•Most examples here use the Netscape Directory server 6.0 (J4258CA) for HP-UX and assume you have some working knowledge of this directory and its tools, such as the Directory Console and ldapsearch. If you have another directory, consult your directory’s documentation for specific information.

•The examples use a base DN of o=bambi.com for illustrative purposes.
