Manage the default values used by Kerberos

Use the Defaults tab on the Kerberos Configuration management page in the LMI to manage these settings. These settings are used as default values by the Kerberos library.

The Defaults tab contains settings for the libdefault section of the corresponding Kerberos configuration file. We can create, edit, and delete properties in this section. We can also test authentication with your web server principal name and password.
