IPA: Identity Policy Audit

# Browser Kerberos Setup

## Firefox

You can configure Firefox to use Kerberos for Single Sign-on. The following instructions will guide you in configuring your web browser to send your Kerberos credentials to the appropriate Key Distribution Center which enables Single Sign-on.

1. Import Certificate Authority certificate

   Make sure you select all three checkboxes.

2. In the address bar of Firefox, type `about:config` to display the list of current configuration options.
3. In the Filter field, type `negotiate` to restrict the list of options.
4. Double-click the `network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris` entry to display the Enter string value dialog box.
5. Enter the name of the domain against which you want to authenticate, for example, `.example.com.`
6. Return to Web UI

## Chrome

You can configure Chrome to use Kerberos for Single Sign-on. The following instructions will guide you in configuring your web browser to send your Kerberos credentials to the appropriate Key Distribution Center which enables Single Sign-on.

### Import CA Certificate

1. Download the CA certificate. Alternatively, if the host is also an IdM client, you can find the certificate in /etc/ipa/ca.crt.
2. Click the menu button with the Customize and control Google Chrome tooltip, which is by default in the top right-hand corner of Chrome, and click Settings.
3. Click Show advanced settings to display more options, and then click the Manage certificates button located under the HTTPS/SSL heading.
4. In the Authorities tab, click the Import button at the bottom.
5. Select the CA certificate file that you downloaded in the first step.

### Enable SPNEGO (Simple and Protected GSSAPI Negotiation Mechanism) to Use Kerberos Authentication in Chrome

1. Make sure you have the necessary directory created by running:
   `[root@client]# mkdir -p /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/`
2. Create a new `/etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/mydomain.json` file with write privileges limited to the system administrator or root, and include the following line:
   `{ "AuthServerWhitelist": "*.example.com." }`
   You can do this by running:
   `[root@server]# echo '{ "AuthServerWhitelist": "*.example.com." }' > /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/mydomain.json`

Note: If using Chromium, use `/etc/chromium/policies/managed/` instead of `/etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/` for the two SPNEGO Chrome configuration steps above.
