Configuring the Kerberized SSH adapter for a Java client


In addition to targets defined in the adapter configuration, the Kerberized SSH adapter can have dynamic targets defined in each adapter request. If a dynamic target is always defined in the Kerberized SSH adapter request, <config/> configuration node can be used in the adapter configuration.

BMC recommends that you do not include unused elements in the adapter configuration because they might cause errors.

Adapter type: ro-adapter-kerberos-ssh2[baob201301:version]

Default adapter name: KerberosSSH2Adapter

To configure the Kerberized SSH adapter, see Configuring base adapters.

The following table describes the adapter configuration elements for the Kerberized SSH adapter that you can specify by using the form view, XML view, or both. You cannot use the form view to configure elements and attributes that do not have an entry in the "UI label" column.

The following figure shows an XML template of the adapter configuration for the Kerberized SSH adapter with a Java client.

    <port></port>
    <user-name></user-name>
    <password encryption-type=""></password>
    <krb-realm></krb-realm>
    <kdc-name></kdc-name>

    <establish-connection-timeout-secs></establish-connection-timeout-secs>
    <network-environment></network-environment>
    <line-termination>&#013;</line-termination>
</config>

When the krb-realm parameter is specified, the value of the default_realm parameter in the Kerberos configuration file is ignored.

The following figure shows the adapter configuration for the Kerberos SSH2 adapter with the krb-realm parameter.

<config>

 <password>servertest</password>
 <krb-realm>RODC.COM</krb-realm>
 <target>server7.myserver.com</target>
 <prompt>$</prompt>
</config>
