If you have multiple keytab files (for multiple databases on one host), you can merge the
keys. After combining the keytabs, configure the Kerberos plugin to point to the one new combined
keytab. Each database comtinues to use its own individual keytab, not the combined one.
Procedure
- Open the MIT Kerberos
ktutil on your database server.
-
Write the 3 keytabs (filename 1, 2, 3) into the Kerberos V5 keytab file
keytab, by entering, for example:
> ktutil
ktutil: read_kt <filename 1>
ktutil: read_kt <filename 2>
ktutil: read_kt <filename 3>
ktutil: write_kt krb5.keytab
ktutil: quit
- Configure the Kerberos plugin to point to the one new combined keytab, in this example,
keytab.
