You can also set authentication details in the Properties view for the data source. There are two properties associated with Kerberos-SPNEGO authentication:

Procedure

In the Properties view for the data source, specify the following details:.

  • In the Athentication Method field, select Kerberos-SPNEGO.
  • In the Kerberos Configuration file field, add the path to the Kerberos configuration file.
    For example, the default locations are:
    • This is a Windows operating system icon. C:\Windows\krb5.ini
    • This is a Linux operating system icon. /etc/krb5.conf
    Tip: If you cannot find the Kerberos configuration file on your machine, contact your system administrator to get the configuration file from the same server where the data source is hosted.
