RE: Single sign on

["Andy Youens" <Andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dave

Might be worth taking a look at Network Authentication Service
(Kerberos), which uses Kerberos tickets to authenticate users instead of
user ID's & Passwords.

I think this was implemented in V5.2 on iSeries.

This is configured in Ops Nav -> Security -> Network Authentication
Service right click then configure.  This starts the NAS configuration
wizard.

The iSeries cannot be a Kerberos server, but can partake in the realm,
so you need a Kerberos server somewhere in your network.

The help text within Ops Nav is quite good on this topic, also loads of
information on Google (http://web.mit.edu/Kerberos/www is worth a look)
plus the information centre.

Personally, I've never used it, but hope this points you in the right
direction.
