kerberos

From the Kerberos Wikipedia entry: > While Microsoft uses the Kerberos protocol, it does not use the MIT software.

The goal is to keep the clock within tolerance for Kerberos (5 minutes).

Did MS use kerberos implementation or the protocol, wiki page isn't very clear on it.

Just like they killed ldap and kerberos so non-MS OS's couldn't use AD.

The kerberos that I authenticate Linux and Solaris boxes against Active Directory with every day.

For example, that involved adding Kerberos support to Ansible so that it could authenticate against Windows domain accounts, because those are authed differently from local machine accounts.

Are you using it with ldap/kerberos auth?

Features Kerberos authentication out of the box!

Some of the early kerberos work could have benefited from making the designers prove or at very least justify their claims (say the use of xor fan-folding as a one-way function).

(unless you use NFSv4 and kerberos) Mesos is just over kill for everything.

For instance there's still work being done to add native PAM and by extension Kerberos support, and the daemon runs as root, thus requiring extra caution about who may run docker commands.

It's just kerberos/hesiod/afs/moira/etc.

Maybe with a Dropbox-like solution for syncing documents (no shiny webapp bullshit, no logging in to domain NAT Samba Kerberos Windows Briefcase Sharepoint nonsense, just "a folder that syncs" and enforces some security).

Kerberos and Hydra are a lot smaller Is one of those Hydras supposed to be something else?

Pretty much the only thing that would have prevented MS would have been if there were patents on Kerberos.

Microsoft did exactly this in Windows 2000 with the BSD-licenced Kerberos.
