Kerberos on OS X 10.7 (Lion)
So I had upgraded my wife’s MacBook to Lion and discovered that, once again, Apple screwed around with Kerberos. This seems to be a recurring theme (and not a good one). After quite a bit of fighting and figuring, a few things have been sorted out. Once I’ve got it completely figured out, I’ll document [...]
Kerberos authentication with NFSv4
This week’s techmail was Kerberos authentication with NFSv4 which looks at how to get more security out of NFS. By using Kerberos.

Kerberos fun Pt 2
Ok, this time the word “fun” is sarcastic. I had it working this afternoon and couldn’t figure out why it all of a sudden stopped working or… at least… subversion via kerberos. I was getting this error whenever I did a “svn ls http://svn.example.com/svn/anthill/ on my server): ah_post_send (#0), code is 401 (want 401), WWW-Authenticate [...]
