### A Keychain.app trick |
|
|
|
To pop up a GUI password dialog: |
|
|
|
`$ kinit <username>@NETBSD.ORG </dev/null` |
|
|
|
Check "Remember this password in my keychain" to make future Kerberos |
|
logins (sans input redirection) prompt-free. |

## Windows XP |
|
|
|
Windows does not provide an easy way to configure and use KDCs different from the one embedded into an Active Directory. |
|
|
|
Therefore, to use [[Kerberos]], you should follow the following steps: |
|
|
|
7. Download the [MIT Kerberos for Windows](http://web.mit.edu/Kerberos/dist/#kfw-3.2) installer. It is composed of different tools traditionally found with Kerberos distributions, like [[!template id=man name=kinit section=1]] or [[!template id=man name=klist section=1]], and a Network Identity Manager, an application used to manage credential caching of Kerberos tickets. |
|
|
|
7. Install the package. Use the default provided options, then restart the computer. |
|
|
|
7. The Network Identity Manager [(PDF)](http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/kfw-3.2/kfw-3.2.2/netidmgr_userdoc.pdf) should automatically start when you login. As there is no principal currently configured, it should open a dialog box to obtain the new credentials. |
|
|
|
7. Enter your principal: |
|
|
|
Username: <username> |
|
Realm: NETBSD.ORG |
|
|
|
7. Click `Ok`. After a few seconds, it should obtain the TGT for you from NetBSD.ORG KDC. |
