>Anyone using IBM's TCP/IP package for OS/2 which supports Kerberos as
>a server? It seems to me that ( assuming it works ) that an inexpensive
>Kerberos server could be configured using a modest PC, OS2 and this TCP/IP
>package.
>This is an option and not included in the main package. It IS in the
>manuals and based on that, it looks like a port of the data base server,
>kadmin, and all the various other odds and ends.
>I have some concerns though. When we checked with our not-so-big-blue rep
>and they said "what's a kerberos?". Which tells me this ain't a real popular
>product option, and that future support might be limited ( or gone ).
>Any other ideas for an inexpensive K. server?
I got the following FTN announcement off of IBMLINK's Bulletin Board:
02/11 9:30&11:30 DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT (DCE)
Thursday
Approx. 9:30 A.M.EST = 8:30 CST = 7:30 MST = 6:30 PST
Program 11:30 " = 10:30 " = 9:30 " = 8:30 "
Length: 90min. ALL TIME ZONES WILL RECEIVE BOTH BROADCASTS.
AVAILABLE: In the clear and at IBM locations
INFO TYPE: This is a technical product update focusing on the implemen-
tation of system services in the distributed LAN environment
for OS/2.
SKILL LVL: 3
AUDIENCE: Customer workstation coordinators supporting and implementing
Local Area Networks, Workstation Specialists, SEs.
The broadcast will explain the role OS/2 will be play in the evolving
computing environment. It will be helpful to review the content of the
Dec 10, 1992 broadcast, OS/2: Distributed LAN System Directions (FTN
#92263). The content of this broadcast will focus on the functions and
services required in the LAN environment of today and the immediate
future.
IBM LAN Systems is releasing a family of products which significantly
extend the distributed computing capabilities of workstations and personal
systems. The core of the Distributed LAN System is a set of system services
which allow networked applications to be more easily developed and
administered.
These system services are based on the Distributed Computing Environment
(DCE) from the Open Software Foundation (OSF), a technology widely
accepted by the computing industry. The session introduces this new
technology, discusses its implementation in workstations and personal
systems, and provides insight into the impact on existing and planned
distributed computing environments.
