Re: [keycloak-user] New to Keycloak - stuck trying to setup SSO via Kerberos and Active Directory

Marko, Thank you for those links. I have come across them and have been using them as reference. I'm pretty sure I have LDAP working. Those instructions are very complete. I can sync users and then authenticate to my app using those credentials. When I update a user in Active Directory I can sync those changes to Keycloak. Where I'm stuck is the Kerberos setup & configuration. I could use more information on how to install, configure it and what commands to run, etc. The articles you posted are very brief about Kerberos setup. For example in the Kerberos document there is a paragraph titled "Setup and configuration of Keycloak server" it seems seems to be an important part of the setup but this section is just a basic outline. Install a client, configure it, edit the krb5.conf to add your realm, export a keytab and secure the keytab file. Not details really. https://keycloak.gitbooks.io/server-adminstration-guide/ content/topics/authentication/kerberos.html

In the "examples for Kerberos" step 4 is install the Kerberos client and step 5 is configure it. There are one or two sentences with information but not to much details on what they mean. There is supposed to be a test.krb5.conf file which should explain more but the link is broken. https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak/tree/3.0.0.Final/examples/kerberos

I spent most of the day researching but I haven't found much information on how to setup Kerberos for Active Directory SSO. I don't have a lot of time to experiment so following a walkthrough on getting Kerberos setup so linux machines can join in a Active Directory domain might give me the info I need or I might lose 3-6 hours. One thing I'm not 100% is do I need to run a Kerberos client and server? In my environment we want users to login to their Windows workstations, open the browser and auto-login to our application with no login prompts. We use Active Directory as the User Federation source and OpenID client as our destination.

I've been putting a ton of hours in to the this project and I really appreciate the help. :) -Dustin ᐧ On Fri, Apr 14, 2017 at 5:30 AM, Marko Strukelj <mstrukel(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > One source of information you did not mention and might help you is > Keycloak documentation: > > https://keycloak.gitbooks.io/server-adminstration-guide/ > content/topics/user-federation/ldap.html > https://keycloak.gitbooks.io/server-adminstration-guide/ > content/topics/authentication/kerberos.html > > > There is also an example for Kerberos: https://github.com/ > keycloak/keycloak/tree/3.0.0.Final/examples/kerberos > > And you may also want to check out our blog at http://blog.keycloak.org/ > for articles on MSAD integration. > > > On Fri, Apr 14, 2017 at 1:19 AM, Consolodated Emails <unimail(a)edgestep.com >> wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> I have a big project due by end of the week and the last item I have to >> deliver is Single Sign On for Active Directory users using IE,Firefox & >> Chrome.
