Kerberos server installation


  • Add the domain component, .linux.class, to the host name of your desktop and the node in file /etc/hosts. For example, if you are using desktop06 and node06, modify /etc/hosts on both of them as follows: 
    192.168.5.6     desktop06.linux.class  desktop06  

192.168.5.26    node06.linux.class  node06


  • On the node system, install MIT Kerberos 5 KDC packages: 
    apt-get install krb5-kdc krb5-admin-server

    When prompted for the KDC server name, specify the host name of your node, for example, node06.linux.class. Note, the host name here should be the host name with its domain component.
