Compatibility Information and Installation Requirements
Pre-Installation Requirements
Before you install the Server, it is recommended that you:
• Ensure that the Kerberos Server is installed on a system that is physically secure and
has restricted access to it. If necessary, ascertain that the system, on which you install the
Server, is kept under lock and key.
• Disable all the network services, such as ftp, telnet, rlogin, finger et all, by
restricting access to the machine. You can do this, by changing the /etc/inetd.conf file
to deactivate the non-kerberized services. The inetd daemon must be restarted after these
changes have been made.
• Also, ensure that the file system is protected with proper permissions in order to restrict
the non-root users from accessing and manipulating the Kerberos Server maintained
files, such as cache files, stash files et all.
• Ensure that you have the HP-UX 11i installed on your system. You can check the version
of the HP-UX operating system by using the uname -r command.
