Hello all, I have some questions that I would appreciate getting some expert Kerberos assistance with.
1) Is SQL Server limited to DES encryption only? The reason I ask is that I have discovered empirically that the SQL Server service startup account needs to set the Active Directory property "Use DES encryption types for this account". A possible explanation was found as follows: "This flag [Use DES encryption types for this account] is only required for service accounts which can only handle DES. When a client makes a request for a service ticket for such service, using TGS-Exchange, the Win2K KDC generates a DES service ticket if this flag is set." If this information is true, it would appear that SQL Server can only handle DES encryption. 2) Why would I not receive an SSPI token back from SQL Server even if I successfully connect to SQL Server using Active Directory/Kerberos authentication? I have an application that requests mutual authentication using the Java GSS-API and no SSPI token is ever returned. We expect our application to receive an SSPI token back from SQL Server to complete the authentication process. This expectation is based on the API and the fact that the TDS specification implies this will occur. Any assistance that can be provided would be very helpful. Thanks! ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
