# Authentication configuration

Authentication type selection

Task Notifier authentication consists of 2 parts:

  • Authentication via WebServices API . It is used by Task Notifier to get information about new tasks. (For correct icon to display in the tray and for new task popup messages)
  • Authentication in built-in web browser. It's necessary for correct work of Runa WFE web-interface.

# Kerberos authentication (kerberos)

Create/edit configuration file krb5.ini.

This file must be located in %SystemRoot% and be named krb5.ini.

See detailed instructions for Kerberos configuration http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/krb5-1.4/krb5-1.4.3/doc/krb5-admin/krb5.conf.html.

Configuration file example.

Configure kerberos.properties

Name Description Default value
appName
login module name com.sun.security.jgss.initiate
moduleClassName
login module class com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule
useTicketCache
if cache for Kerberos tickets is used true
keyTab
use keytab file form here C:/krb5.keytab
doNotPrompt
not to use user input in any case true
debug
authentication debug mode false
serverPrincipal
SPN (login from server side) HTTP/wfserver.test.com

# Kerberos authentication (sspiKerberos)

Kerberos protocol is also used for this type of authentication, but ticket is received by Windows OS means and no additional configuration is needed.
