Kerberos SSO with SAP ERP (AIX) and SAP GUI
Hi,
If possible, please point me to some successful documentation where Kerberos V is used to setup Single Sign-On using Windows 2003 ADS and AIX SAP servers. We would like to be able to authenticate from our desktop via ADS and then click on a SAP system from the SAP Login Pad and achieve SSO into that application server running on AIX.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Re: Kerberos SSO with SAP ERP (AIX) and SAP GUI
Hi Rick,
SAP does not officialy offer gss-api libraries to systems other then
Windows. There was a product call BC SNC adapter, but it's
discontinued and not supported by SAP for production systems.
There is a somewhat dated guide in the group about how to configure it
on Linux and AIX 5.2 env., using the MIT kerberos module source.
For a solid and supported solution, you should check the SAP certified
verndor list for licensed SNC providers:

Certification Category: "Secure Network Communications"
The solution Tim is reffering to, is indeed SAP certified.
But depending on your implementation scenario and the user's main
access point: you might want to think about implementing SSO via SAP
Enterprise Portal. This is a very robust solution that requires no
additional software license.
