Kerberos is a network authentication protocol designed to provide secure, mutual authentication between clients and services over an insecure network. It uses symmetric key cryptography and a trusted third party known as the Key Distribution Center (KDC), which issues time-limited tickets for authentication. Users authenticate once to the KDC, and receive a Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT), which they can then use to request service tickets to access various resources without re-entering credentials.
You can use an MIT Kerberos server to authenticate access to NFSv4 views instead of the Active Directory Kerberos server.
MIT Kerberos does not provide user information (including permissions) for users being authenticated. If MIT Kerberos is configured as a provider for a tenant in a VAST Cluster, another provider (VAST Provider or LDAP) must be used to provide these user details.
