Krb5LoginModule and MappingModule missing in SPS15?

[jack_slattery]

Hello,

I'm trying to implement "SPNego for Kerberos Authentication" now that it's available in SPS15. The help files say to use login modules Krb5LoginModule and MappingModule but they're not available. Krb5LoginModule seems simple to add (class name com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule, display name Krb5LoginModule) but MappingModule seems to be missing altogether.

Has anyone else run into this? Does anyone have some advice (other than deploying the old spnegoauthlib.sda file)?

Thanks,

Jack

Hi Jack,

the Mapping Module is available on the J2EE Engine but it is not registered in the Visual Administrator. As you found out, the same applies for the Krb5LoginModule.

To register it go to the login module management screen in VA and add a login module using the following syntax:

Name: <b>MappingModule</b>

Classname: <b>com.sap.security.core.server.jaas.SPNegoMappingLoginModule</b>

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Best Regards,

Yonko
