  • From within SoftNAS, navigate to Settings >Identity and Access Control > Kerberos

  • Enter the required information into the Default Configuration text boxes.

  • Once done, click the Update Configuration button.  This will update your /etc/krb5.conf file.

Verifying Kerberos is Functional

In the above example, AD.BUURST.QA is the full domain name.
  • Log in to a command shell using SSH, SoftNAS Console (VMware) or use the Command Shell.

  • To access the command shell from within the SoftNAS UI, navigate to Settings > General System Settings, which will open a new window with access to the full Webmin console.

  • Choose Others > Command Shell.

  • Once in the command shell, issue the following command to login: 
kinit -p administrator

  • List the Kerberos ticket, which proves you successfully logged into AD using the following command:

    klist
  • You should see something similar to the image to the right.
