Usable on plain Linux as well as on OSX. + +--- + +#Dependencies +- Docker +- jq 1.4 + +####Linux specific dependency +- Heimdal Kerberos 5 + +####OSX specific dependency +- boot2docker + +--- + +#Usage + +###Check your configuration +The default configuration is likely to be fine for your first steps, validate it using the `config` command. +``` +./kdc config +``` + +You will receive a list of relevant configuration information. The defaults are derived from your hosts' configuration to allow for a quick test setup. + +**Example output: `./kdc config`** +``` +System + fqdn: hostname.domain.name +KDC + nat: 127.0.0.1 + port: 48088 +Kerberos + domain: domain.name + realm: DOMAIN.NAME + principal: tillt/hostname.domain.name@DOMAIN.NAME, password: matilda +``` + + +###Build the docker image +``` +./kdc build +``` + +This will render the image which is based on plain ubuntu 14.04. Additionally the packages `heimdal-kdc` as well as `libsasl2-modules-gssapi-heimdal` are installed. The latter is useful only if you extend this container image by further applications making use of Kerberos authentication via SASL2's GSSAPI. + + +###Run the container +``` +./kdc start +``` + +On OSX, this step starts by setting up the VM (via boot2docker). Then, on all host systems, the container is started in detached mode, allowing you to keep on working with this shell without having to fork another process. The container name is directly derived from the hostname supplied via the configuration (see [Configuration](#configuration)). + +###Watch the KDC server log file +``` +docker exec -it kdc tail -f /var/log/heimdal-kdc.log +``` + +###Run a quick test +``` +./kdc test +``` +On OSX, this first checks if the VM is active. Then, on all hosts systems, a network connection to the KDC is attempted. + +###Prepare the environment +``` +$(./kdc shellinit) +``` + +A Kerberos client needs access to a configuration file. To prevent having to edit the system wide configuration file (`/etc/krb5.conf`) a local, minimal version is rendered and supplied once the container has gotten started. Additionally, the keytab also gets exported and hence needs to be accessible for clients making use of password-less authentication. To make use of the files, environment variables that are interpreted by Kerberos clients are prepared. + +###Render a ticket supplying the principal password +``` +kinit tillt/hostname.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM +``` + +Password: `matilda` + +####Check the ticket +``` +klist +``` + +On OSX you could also use the Ticket Viewer to check the details of the issued ticket (`open "/System/Library/CoreServices/Ticket Viewer.app"`). + +**Example output: `klist`** + +``` +Credentials cache: API:42926CE1-63E2-4C66-B2D7-00B2F198182F + Principal: tillt/hostname.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM + + Issued Expires Principal +Nov 26 11:06:25 2014 Nov 26 21:06:25 2014 krbtgt/EXAMPLE.COM@EXAMPLE.COM +``` + +####Remove the ticket +``` +kdestroy +``` + +###Check the content of the keytab +``` +ktutil --keytab=krb5.keytab list +``` + +**Example output: `ktutil --keytab=krb5.keytab list`** +``` +krb5.keytab: + +Vno Type Principal Aliases + 1 aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96 tillt/hostname.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM + 1 des3-cbc-sha1 tillt/hostname.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM + 1 arcfour-hmac-md5 tillt/hostname.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM +``` + +###Render a ticket using keytab based authentication +``` +kinit -kt krb5.keytab tillt/hostname.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM +``` + +###Check the ticket +``` +klist +``` + +[...] + + +###Stop the container +``` +./kdc stop +``` + +This will stop the KDC server, stop and remove the container and additionally remove the temporary keytab and configuration files. + + +###Customize your configuration +You may use environment variables and/or a JSON configuration file for customizing the setup. The default filename for the JSON file is `kdc.json` but may be configured by the environment variable KDC_CONFIG. + +The default configuration is most likely good enough for your first experiments. + +####Kerberos principal +| env. variable | config node | default | +|---------------|-------------|-----------| +| KDC_PRINCIPAL | id | `tillt` | + +**Note**: using a configuration file allows setting up multiple principals (via **principals[ ].id**). + +####Kerberos password +| env. variable | config node | default | +|---------------|-------------|-----------| +| KDC_PASSWORD | password | `matilda` | + +**Note**: using a configuration file allows setting up multiple passwords (via **principals[ ].password**). + +####Kerberos client +| env. variable | config node | default | +|---------------|-------------|-------------------------| +| KDC_CLIENT | n/a | oufput of `hostname -s` | + +**Note**: when no principals are defined via configuration file, KDC_CLIENT is used to create a full service principal (schema: KDC_PRINCIPAL **/** KDC_CLIENT **.** KDC_DOMAIN_NAME **@** KDC_REALM_NAME ). + +####KDC hostname +| env. variable | config node | default | +|---------------|-------------|-----------| +| KDC_HOST_NAME | n/a | `kdc` | + +####External KDC IP +| env. variable | config node | default | +|---------------|-------------|-------------| +| KDC_NATHOST | nat | `127.0.0.1` | + +**Note**: this value gets overridden by the kdc script on OSX to allow for connecting to the boot2docker VM.
