kerberos

Update to previous post on older BES version ( “Test intranet access from Blackberry and other mobile platforms”). For BES12 create a krb5.conf file and upload to the “Single-sign on” profile (obv. switch mycompany.com to your own FQDN. And specify the FQDNs for one or more domain controllers. This has been case sensitive in the past.)``` [libdefaults] default_etypes = aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96 aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96 des3-cbc-sha1 des3-cbc-sha rc4-hmac default_realm = MYCOMPANY.COM [realms] MYCOMPANY.COM = { kdc = tcp/DC1.

If you’re accessing intranet websites using Blackberries and other mobile platforms like Good for Enterprise you can get Kerberos working to provide single sign-on/passthough authentication. Staff can then browse intranet pages that are secured by Windows authentication, URL filtering or NTFS without having to type in their (probably complex) Windows password on a teeny tiny phone keypad. I use the Active Server Page (ASP) below on IIS to test if Kerberos is working.
