    +### Standalone Instance, kerberos
    +In this configuration, the user will need to provide certificates and the associated configuration information.  Optionally,
    +if the kerberos provider of interest is operating in kerberos modes, certificates will additionally be needed.
    +Of particular note, is the `AUTH` environment variable which is set to `kerberos`.  Additionally, the user must provide a
    +username as provided by the configured kerberos server in the `INITIAL_ADMIN_IDENTITY` environment variable. This value will be 
    +used to seed the instance with an initial user with administrative privileges.  Finally, this command makes use of a 
    +volume to provide certificates on the host system to the container instance.
    +
    +#### For a minimal, connection to an kerberos server using SIMPLE authentication:
    +
    +    docker run --name nifi \
    +      -v /User/dreynolds/certs/localhost:/opt/certs \
    +      -v /home/kerberos:/opt/kerberos
