Security
Kerberos Client Software (new at 11i original release)
Chapter 11224
Special Considerations
Developing Secure Applications
Though Kerberos APIs are made available, these are for supporting
existing Kerberos Applications to HP-UX 11i. Application Developers are
strongly encouraged to use GSS API for developing secure applications.
See gssapi (5) for details.
libsis.sl
Most of the KRB-Support (libsis.sl) functionality is now available
with Kerberos Client Software. It is recommended that developers
compile and link with these libraries.
Unsupported Features
• Kerberos Client Software does not support Triple DES due to U.S.
export regulations.
• Kerberos Client libraries are not thread safe.
Size Requirement
Kerberos Client Software requires 5MB of disk space.
Compatibility Issues
• Kerberos V5 1.1.1 Client Software is compatible with earlier versions
of the Kerberos product supporting RFC 1510.
• Kerberos Client Software only supports the Kerberos 5 protocol as per
RFC 1510. The product does not support the Kerberos 4 protocol and
Kerberos 4 to Kerberos 5 request conversions.
