Synopsis
This handbook is a complete step-by-step guide to working with Kerberos, one of the most popular network authentication systems used by network administrators and programmers. Kerberos provides a clear explanation of network security principles and basic concepts, while taking you through each element of the Kerberos system. Written by a network security professional who has worked with Kerberos extensively, this practical guide reveals the experience-based tips that will help you avoid pitfalls and maximize the systems capabilities. The text shows you how to obtain, install, optimize, use, and administer Kerberos, and covers important information for developing Kerberized applications. You will find thorough explanations of such key topics as: *Basic cryptography and hash functions *Mutual authentication *Establishing and changing passwords *Manipulating credentials *Installing the Key Distribution Center (KDC) *Optimizing configuration *Creating and administering a Kerberos database *Adding, deleting, and modifying a principal *Setting up cross-realm authentication *Extensible function calls *The GSS-API *The various versions of Kerberos and their operational differences In addit, Kerberos authentication offers a proven, non-proprietary solution for maximizing the security of virtually any computing system without compromising performance. This is the first authoritative, accessible guide to Kerberos for both users and administrators. Authored by Brian Tung, who wrote the Internet's #1 Kerberos web site, this book brings together everything you need to understand, deploy, use, and manage Kerberos servers. Tung presents a remarkably clear explanation of Kerberos components, algorithms, and protocols, plus a full chapter on developing Kerberized applications. Finally, preview the exciting future of Kerberos, including integration with public-key cryptography, smart cards, and Windows 2000.
