Create a Kerberos service principal name and keytab file

About this task

Step 2 towards the goal: Setting up Kerberos as the authentication mechanism for WebSphere Application Server

Procedure

The IBM® implementation of the Java Generic Security Service (JGSS) and KRB5 require a Kerberos configuration file krb5.conf or krb5.ini on each node or Java virtual machine (JVM). In this release of WebSphere Application Server, this configuration file should be placed in the config/cells/<cell_name> directory so that all application servers can access this file. If you do not have a Kerberos configuration file, use a wsadmin command to create one. Read the Creating a Kerberos configuration article for more information.

What to do next

Configure Kerberos as the authentication mechanism for WebSphere Application Server by using the administrative console
