RE: RPG program - Kerberos Authentication -- RPG400-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Perhaps if you had told us the actual problem that you have rather than the
solution you are trying to shoehorn in then help could have been more apt.

Here are some possibilities given the info we have so far:

1. Somehow enforce using unique IBM i user IDs. That way all of the Kerberos
stuff is already done.
2. Set your product up as a licensed product with seat limitations
3. Set up your own "seat limiting mechanism" that does not rely on unique
user IDs

Our product is installed at several customer sites but most of them will be
using IBM i Access for Windows or ACS emulator

As there could be other applications running on our customer’s IBM i server,
we are unsure if they will be ready to share the krbsrv400 SPN and it’s
corresponding key stored in the keytab file. So we are trying to create a
new SPN and keytab file for our product so that we can secure our product
access key
