Default Keytab File
DefaultKeytabFile
The full path to the keytab file that the connector uses to obtain the ticket for Kerberos authentication.
Note:
- This option is applicable only when the authentication mechanism is set to Kerberos (
AuthMech=Kerberos) and the Use Keytab option is enabled (UseKeytab=1). - If the UPN Keytab Mapping File option (the
UPNKeytabMappingFilekey) is set to a JSON file with a valid mapping to a keytab, then that keytab takes precedence.
If you do not set this option but the Use Keytab option is enabled (UseKeytab=1), then the MIT Kerberos library will search for a keytab using the following search order:
- The file specified by the KRB5_KTNAME environment variable.
- The
default_keytab_namesetting in the[libdefaults]section of the Kerberos configuration file (krb5.conf/krb5.ini). - The default keytab file specified in the MIT Kerberos library. Typically, the default file is
C:\Windows\krb5ktfor Windows platforms and/etc/krb5.keytabfor non-Windows platforms.
