12.2.5. Test the Kerberos Authentication

Use the following instructions to test the Kerberos authentication. As a prerequisite for this procedure, ensure that the Kerberos Client is configured (see Section 12.2.3, “Configure the Kerberos Client”).

Procedure 12.3. Test the Kerberos Authentication

Create a Test Page
Create a test page named auth_kerb_page.html in the $EWS_HOME/httpd/www/html/kerberostest/.
Add the Contents of the Test Page
Add the following contents to the test page (auth_kerb_page.html:
```
<html>
  <body>
    <h1>mod_auth_kerb successfully authenticated!</h1>
</body>
</html>
```
Optional: Set Log Level
Optionally, set the log level for debugging in the $EWS_HOME/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file.
Start httpd
As the root user, start the JBoss Enterprise Web Server httpd as follows:
```
# $EWS_HOME/httpd/sbin/apachectl start
```

Test Authentication

Test the authentication as follows:

Initiate Kerberos authentication for the test user hnelson:
```
$ kinit hnelson
```

View the details for the test user hnelson:

$ klist

A result similar to the following appears:

Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_18602
Default principal: hnelson@EXAMPLE.COM

Valid starting     Expires            Service principal
06/03/13 14:21:13  06/04/13 14:21:13  krbtgt/EXAMPLE.COM@EXAMPLE.COM
        renew until 06/10/13 14:21:13

Testing httpd Kerberos Authentication

Test httpd Kerberos authentication as follows:

$ curl --negotiate -u : http://localhost/kerberostest/auth_kerb_page.html

If working correctly, the following result appears:

<html>
  <body>
    <h1>mod_auth_kerb successfully authenticated!</h1>
</body>
</html>

See http://modauthkerb.sourceforge.net/ for more information about mod_auth_kerb.
