Hello, Here are some sites that may help you in your quest for kerberos/java integration. http://www.stonesoup.org/javak.html http://www.wedgetail.com/jcsi/examples/JCSI-Kerberos-JAAS-Example.html http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jgss/single-signon.html These are more general kerberos admin stuff as opposed to heimdal specific. What I would recommend you do, is look at using the kadm library (found in the lib/kadm5 directory) with java. This link http://www.sun.com/software/security/kerberos/ mentions administration via java.... Sun Enterprise Authentication MechanismSEAM software provides an
implementation of the Kerberos v5 protocols for the Solaris Operating
Environment with some additional capabilities. In addition to the
Kerberos base functionality and interoperability, SEAM software
simplifies administration with /* Reliablity is increased with the addition of hot-standby
capabilities for the KDC. Should the master KDC fail, a replicated KDC
can take over and prevent interruptions in service. Multiple realm
support is also supported so that SEAM can provide cross-organizational
access for users. SEAM provides privacy and strong authentication for
Solaris NFS services and the standard user interactive network services
(telnet, FTP, rsh, rlogin, and rcp). Also Introduction to JAAS and Java GSS-API Tutorials:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jgss/tutorials/ seems to be good. Charles Jose Gonzalez Gomez wrote: Hi there, I'm interested in accessing the administration servers (kadmind, kpasswdd?) using Java to build a graphical administration tool (either standalone or J2EE based) so I can create, delete and modify principals, change their passwords... Is there any documentation about the protocols I should use to achieve this? Can you give me any pointers?
