| Kerberizing Networking Sessions with PC-Leland These pages describe how to use PC-Leland, Stanford's Kerberizing application for Windows-based computers. |
||||
|
|
||||
 |
What is PC-Leland? | |||
PC-Leland is a password encrypter and network authenticator. It encrypts your login password, which is then sent to IR.STANFORD.EDU. Kerberized servers on the Stanford campus contact IR.STANFORD.EDU to authenticate your connection. This saves you from typing your password for each computer connection you attempt, ie, once for Eudora, then for a CMGM session, again for a Leland connection, etc. Because PC-Leland encrypts your password as it is being sent through the network, unscrupulous types can only view a garbage string for your password instead of the password itself. |
||||
|
Some Background on PC-Leland | |||
Computers with PC-Leland installed have the following icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen: |
||||
 |
||||
| If this PC-Leland icon is not visible on your screen, directions for downloading PC-Leland are available here.
If the icon appears as below, with double arrows above a Quad image, a Kerberized session is already in use: |
||||
 |
||||
| If a Kerberized session is in use, right-click the PC-Leland icon and select "Logout:username" from the menu. Normally, "username" is the SUNet ID of the person using the Kerberized session. Stanford University prohibits use of Kerberized sessions that are not initiated with your own SUNet ID. |
||||
|
Kerberized Logins | |||
To use Kerberos, select "Login..." from the PC-Leland menu (trigger the menu by right-clicking on the PC-Leland icon). You should see the following window: |
||||
 |
||||
| Enter your SUNet (Leland) ID and password for the "SUNet ID" and "Password" fields, respectively and click the "OK" button.
You should also notice the following icon in the top right corner of the screen in the menubar (note the double-arrows over the picture of the Stanford Quad!): |
