Kerberos Expert,
If I combine the Kerberos with hierarchical domain naming services ( for REALM
) which may result in number of identical OS user IDs from different sub
domains accross geographic locations, since the unique user ID requirement
only applies to individual domain. My questions are:
1. Can I register identical OS user IDs repeatedly with distinct passwords?
2. If this is possible how Kerberos Server knows that which user is from what
machine? Do I specify machine (node) name when I register users with Kerberos
Server to differenciate user IDs from sub domains?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
