[jira] [Commented] (DIRAPI-350) gssapi documentation

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-350?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16882471#comment-16882471 ] 

Charles Hedrick commented on DIRAPI-350:
----------------------------------------

my apologies. The sample has unncessary code. The cc argument and the constructor aren't really needed. I can update the code if you want.

> In the section on authentication, there is no usable documentation for GSSAPI. Since GSSAPI is mostly used for Kerberos, you need sample code. Here is some that works.
> First, non-trivial Kerberos authentication requires configuration. Creating a Kerberos configuration is not well documented elsewhere, so we include here sample code. It is possible to put configuration information in a JAAS login configuration file as well, but doing it programmatically provides more flexibiity for appications that need to use more than one principal.
>     *import* javax.security.auth.login.Configuration;
>     *class* KerberosConfiguration *extends* Configuration {
>         *private* String cc;
>         *public* KerberosConfiguration(String cc) {
>             *this*.cc = cc;
>         }
>         @Override
>         *public* AppConfigurationEntry[] *getAppConfigurationEntry*(String name) {
>             Map<String, String> options = *new* HashMap<String, String>();
>             options.put("useKeyTab", "true");
>             *try* {
>                 options.put("principal", "host/" + InetAddress.getLocalHost().getCanonicalHostName() + "@MYKERBOSDOMAIN");
>             } *catch* (Exception e){
>                 System.out.println("Can't find our hostname " + e);
>             }
>             options.put("refreshKrb5Config", "true");
>             options.put("keyTab", "/etc/krb5.keytab");
>             options.put("debug", "true");
>            *return* *new* AppConfigurationEntry[]{
>                 *new* AppConfigurationEntry("com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule",
>                                           AppConfigurationEntry.LoginModuleControlFlag.REQUIRED,
>                                           options),};
>         }
>  }
>  *public* KerberosConfiguration *makeKerberosConfiguration*(String cc) {
>        *return* *new* KerberosConfiguration(cc);
>  }
>  
> makeKerberosConfiguration(null) will return the configuration object needed for GSSAPI. The options in this example authenticate the host, based on /etc/krb5.keytab. Other options are documented in the Java documentation for the class Krb5LoginModule. Note that if you are going to use user credentials, they should be stored in a file, not KEYRING or KCM.
>  
> The following code uses a configuration generated with the code above to do a GSSAPI SASL bind. The assumption is that ldapNetworkConnection has already been opened using connect
>         Configuration sconfig = makeKerberosConfiguration(null);
>         SaslGssApiRequest saslGssApiRequestt = *new* SaslGssApiRequest();
>         saslGssApiRequest.setLoginModuleConfiguration( sconfig);
>         saslGssApiRequest.setLoginContextName( "org.apache.directory.ldap.client.api.SaslGssApiRequest" );
>         saslGssApiRequest.setMutualAuthentication( false );
>  
>         BindResponse br;
>  
>         *try* {
>                 br = ldapNetworkConnection.bind( saslGssApiRequest );
>                 ldapNetworkConnection.startTls();
>          } *catch* ( LdapException e ) {
>                 e.printStackTrace();
>         }
> At this point you can do search or other operations.
