I have just got into understanding kerberos. I would like to
understand overhead in terms of performance, when having kerberos.
In Online Transaction processing, their are requests comming at a rate
of 50 requests/second and server would be spending time servicing the requests.
I would think that their would be a lot over head if authenticator ticket
is to be generated for each request.
Please help me understand basic design of applications and where is kerberos
useful, and can i use kerberos at user level application.
thanks
