It covers the basics of the Kerberos protocol, examines common deployment considerations and discuss realm administration strategies. We'll also discuss issues around non-Unix system interoperability, considering the connection Windows and Mac OS X clients and servers, as well as looking at advanced issues such as cross realm authentication and intergration with public-key technologies.
