Description

The full path to the keytab file that the connector uses to obtain the ticket for Advanced Kerberos authentication.

Note:

  • This option is applicable only when the authentication mechanism is set to Advanced Kerberos (AUTHTYPE=3).
  • If the UserMappingFile property 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 authentication mechanism is set to Advanced Kerberos (AUTHTYPE=3), then the connector uses the system-wide default keytab file that is returned by the Kerberos library API call.
