Kerberos

Kerberos is a network authentication protocol that uses secret-key cryptography so that a client can prove its identity to a server in a network-based security mechanism.

Kerberos assumes the key distribution center (KDC) is running and configured for your realm, and the client libraries are installed under or on each client host in your realm.

Refer to the documentation and online help pages that are provided with Kerberos software for the configuration information.
