Compatibility Information and Installation Requirements
Pre-Installation Requirements
Before you install the server, it is recommended that you:
• Ensure that you have the HP-UX 11i v2 operating system installed on your system. You
can check the version of the HP-UX operating system by using the uname -r command.
• 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, to restrict 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.
