Hi,

To test kerberos (AD) Authentication user following steps.

Code: Select all

# kinit testuser@MYDOMAIN.COM
(Enter the password when prompted)
# klist

Note: The output from the klist command shows that the user is able to connect to Active Directory.
If the above works but you still cannot, try the following:

Code: Select all

# kinit -S scalix-ual/scalix.mydomain.com@MYDOMAIN.COM testuser@MYDOMAIN.COM
(Enter the password when prompted)
# klist

Note: Now the output from the klist shows successfully connecting to the AD domain controller and matching their password. The user has granted to use the scalix-ual service and log in to Scalix.
