Kerberos is an open-source computer network authentication
protocol that uses tickets to verify the identity of users before
allowing them to access network resources.
Your client host (your PC) is part of the same LDAP realm
as the station.
- Launch Workbench and open a platform or station.
If Workbench is able to acquire your native Kerberos credentials,
it displays the Authentication window with credentials
filled in.
- Do one of the following:
- If Workbench fills in your credentials
with credentials from the LDAP server, click OK to log in.
- If Workbench is unable to acquire your
native Kerberos credentials from the LDAP server, it displays a simple
login window.
- To log in as a different LDAP user or as a local user, enter
different credentials.
You are logged in using Kerberos authentication.
