I have a proposal. Let me know if this is a good idea to go about! 1. Generate seperate keytab file for each target. 2. Merge the keytabs into a common keytab file. 3. While configuring the target make sure they will use only the part of the keytab ment for them. This way the security is also not

This type of setup won't work. You have to differentiate between what is possible with Kerberos/GSSAPI and how are existing applications (e.g. telnet,ftp,HTTP) using it. With telnet,ftp,HTTP you are bound to DNS resolutions (A record and reverse, hosts files are possible but painful). If you w

Instead of using ktpass on the kdc you can do all directly from the Unix system, by using tools like net ads join from samba. (Keep in mind that you need to authenticate to the kdc to create accounts and if you automate this completly (e.g. with a hardcoded password) the password will be known a

Sorry I didn't check the link, it was working some time ago fine. I think the only way to automate it is via the ldap interface to Active Directory ( at least I am not aware of any other easy way). You may be able to write a GSSAPI client server app to create the AD entry and fetch the keytab.

Hi Sandy, of course you can use the same keytab on every device. At least, I can't see why it should not be possible - technically speaking. You should only consider if you want this scenario - all 100 devices connecting as the same user. Try it with 2 devices first - copy the same keytab to both
