4.Set the wireless LAN interface parameters to enable Kerberos. store kerberos opts auth

5.Set the Kerberos parameters to enable Kerberos authentication.

The Kerberos password must match the Windows 2000 user password for the Print Server. The administrator should choose at least 9 alphanumeric characters with a combination of upper and lower case.

The following is a suggestion for creating strong password for computer security. Make sure the password:

•is at least seven characters long. The most secure passwords are seven to 14 characters long.

•contains characters from each of the following groups:

letters (uppercase and lowercase), numerals, and symbols (all characters not defined as letters or numerals, i.e., ! @ # $ % ^ & *, etc.)

The kname is default to “krbtgt” which is the default name used in Windows 2000 KDC. It must be configured to match with the KDC if the default is changed. The krealm is case sensitive; it must match the Access Point’s realm.
