Description

Centralized network authentication can use Kerberos and PKIX components from the Heimdal implementation.

It is intended for administrators and software that need ticket-based login, identity services, or compatibility with Kerberos environments. Configuration affects credentials, service trust, certificates, and domain security, so mistakes can break logins or weaken access control.
