Kerberos without DNS

[sureshjayaram@gmail.com]

Managed to setup Kerberos without DNS server. Things to remember..

(i) Have entries in /etc/hosts for all the machines, KDC server &
kerberized server/client, so that the hostname is resolvable
(ii) Principals will be of the format <user>/host at REALM instead of
<user>/host.domain at REALM
(iii) Use file /etc/krb5.conf for hostname to kerberos Realm mappings
(iv) This method doesn't scale

Thanks,
Suresh
