Creating a keytab file for the Kerberos service account
Creating the keytab file is the third step in configuring Spotfire Server for the Kerberos authentication method.
Procedure
Example
Creating a keytab file for the "spotsvc" Kerberos service account in
the "research.example.com" domain for
Spotfire Server
listening on the default HTTP port 80, or the default HTTPS port 443 on the
"spotserver.research.example.com" computer:
> ktpass /princ HTTP/spotfireserver.research.example.com@RESEARCH.EXAMPLE.COM
/ptype krb5_nt_principal /crypto aes128-sha1 /mapuser spotsvc /out spotfire.keytab -kvno 0
/pass spotsvcpassword
Example
Creating a keytab file for the "spotsvc" Kerberos service account in
the "research.example.com" domain for
Spotfire Server
listening on the HTTP port 8080 on the "spotserver.research.example.com"
computer:
> ktpass /princ HTTP/spotfireserver.research.example.com:8080@RESEARCH.EXAMPLE.COM
/ptype krb5_nt_principal /crypto aes128-sha1 /mapuser spotsvc
/out spotfire.keytab -kvno 0 /pass spotsvcpassword
