Kerberos Authentication
Before you configure HVR for Kerberos authentication with Sybase ASE, refer to the Sybase ASE documentation for information about how to configure Kerberos for Sybase ASE.
HVR supports two ways for Kerberos authentication:
Accessing the kerberized Sybase ASE server with the User and Key Tab parameters supplied. In this case, HVR will run kinit to authenticate itself. To use a keytab file with HVR, enter the details in the User and Key Tab fields of the Location Connection dialog.
Additionally, the following action must be defined for a Sybase ASE location:
Group Table Action Parameter(s) Sybase ASE * Environment Name=KRB5_CONFIGValue=full path to the krb5.conf file Accessing the kerberized Sybase ASE server without supplying the User and Key Tab parameters. In this case, the HVR Agent Listener (in case of a remote HVR Agent connecting to Sybase ASE) or the Scheduler (in case of a local HVR connecting to Sybase ASE) should be started from an already Kerberos-authenticated environment.
