* Kerberos is case-sensitive in many places and the error messages (or lack thereof) may not be sufficiently explanatory.
Check the case sensitivity of the service principal in your configuration files. The convention is `HTTP/fully.qualified.domain@REALM`.
* Browsers have varying levels of restriction when dealing with SPNEGO negotiations.

== Who is This Guide For?
-This guide is written for users who have basic experience with NiFi but have little familiarity with the NiFi Registry. This guide is not intended to be an exhaustive instruction manual or a reference guide. The link:user-guide.html[NiFi Registry User Guide] and link:https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/user-guide.html[NiFi User Guide] provide a great deal more information about using the Registry and integrating it with NiFi. This guide, in comparison, is intended to provide users with just the information needed in order to understand how to configure NiFi Registry, connect with NiFi and start using versioned NiFi dataflows.
