KERBPASS Keyword—Foreign Password

Valid on z/OS.

Use the KERBPASS keyword as a password which must be supplied by a foreign system when the network authentication service connection is initiated.

Each system (A and B) must define itself as a local realm with a KERBPASS (X and Y):

LOCAL REALM A
KERBPASS: X

LOCAL REALM B
KERBPASS: Y

FOREIGN REALM B
KERBPASS: Y

FOREIGN REALM A
KERBPASS: X

In addition, to establish a connection, each system must define the corresponding foreign realm with passwords which match their local definition. This assures authentication at the REALM level.

This keyword has the following format:

TSS ADD(SDT) REALM(KERBDFLT|foreign_realm)
             REALMNAME(realmname)
             ENCRYPT('[DES|NODES]
                     [DES3|NODES3]
                     [DESD|NODESD]
                     [AES128|NOAES128]
                     [AES256|NOAES256]')
             KERBPASS(password)
