3.7.1.4 Realms to DCE Cell Mappings Stanza
Thehpss_pftpd_amgr is used to provide Kerberos credential-based authentication. Thisfeature is
required by the Kerberos FTP client or the HPSSkrb5_gss_pftp_client. The hpss_pftpd_amgr
daemoninvokes an Authentication Manager, typically auth_krb5gss, to perform security functions
on its behalf. When the Kerberos Parallel FTP Daemon is used in an environment where the
Kerberos Realm Name is not the same as the DCE Cell Name (NOT Recommended!), it is
necessary for the Authentication Manager to map the name of the incoming user appropriately.
The Realms to DCE Cell Mappings stanza provides this feature.
