Introduction to the Kerberos Products and GSS-API
PAM Kerberos
PAM Kerberos
HP-UX provides Kerberos authentication as part of the Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) architecture as specified in RFC 86.0, of the Open Group. PAM allows multiple authentication technologies to co-exist on HP-UX. The /etc/pam.conf configuration file determines the authentication module to be used in a manner transparent to the applications that use the PAM library.
This product consists of the following:
•PAM Kerberos library - libpam_krb5
•PAM Kerberos Configuration validation tool - pamkrbval. Refer to “The pamkrbval Tool” on page 48, for more information.
