3 <title>Appendix B. Configuring Legacy Components</title>
5 <para>This chapter describes how to configure a number of deprecated
6 components in OpenAFS. Whilst these components are not recommended for sites
7 performing new installations, it is recognised that there are a number of
8 installations which have not yet transitioned from using these, for whom
9 continued provision of installation instructions my be useful</para>
12 <title>kaserver and Legacy Kerberos 4 Authentication</title>
14 <para>This section contains instructions for installing server and client
15 machines in sites which use either the deprecated AFS
16 <emphasis role="bold">kaserver</emphasis> or legacy Kerberos 4
17 authentication systems</para>
19 <para>This should be used in conjuction with the installation instructures
20 in earlier chapters, whose format it mirrors.</para>
23 <title>Background</title>
25 <para>As detailed in the OpenAFS "No more DES" roadmap, OpenAFS is moving
26 away from the single DES based security models of both
27 <emphasis role="bold">kaserver</emphasis> and external Kerberos 4 KDCs,
28 in favour of using external, Kerberos 5 KDCs for authentication.</para>
30 <para>AFS version 3 was designed and implemented during the late 80s and
31 early 90s when the state of the art in distributed computer
32 authentication and data security was Kerberos 4 and single DES. The
33 RXKAD security class was specified to use a single DES key and the kauth
34 authentication protocol is a derivative of MIT's Kerberos 4 protocol.
37 <para>For the better part of the last decade there has been concern
38 regarding the cryptographic strength of the DES cipher when used as a
39 building block within systems intended to prove authentication and/or
40 data integrity and privacy. Kerberos 4 and RXKAD are not extensible and
41 cannot negotiate non-DES key types. As a result efforts to migrate away
42 from Kerberos 4 based authentication at higher risk organizations have
43 been underway since the mid to late 90s. Ken Hornstein issued the first
44 of his Kerberos 5 migration kits for AFS in May 1999. </para>
46 <para>In March 2003, the continued use of single DES and kauth as the
47 basis for OpenAFS security became a real-world threat when a significant
48 Kerberos 4 crossrealm vulnerability was published. The OpenAFS community
49 was notified in security advisory OPENAFS-SA-2003-001 which can be
50 found at http://www.openafs.org/security.</para>
52 <para>As a result of the mounting concerns regarding the strength of
53 DES, NIST announced in May 2003 the withdrawal of FIPS 43-3
54 "Data Encryption Standard (DES)" as well as the associated FIPS 74 and
55 FIPS 81. In other words, NIST announced that DES and its derivatives
56 could no longer be used by the United States Government and should no
57 longer by those that trust its lead.</para>
59 <para>In July 2003 MIT announced the end of life of the Kerberos 4
60 protocol which is distributed for backward compatibility as part of the
61 MIT Kerberos 5 distribution.</para>
64 <title>Using this Appendix</title>
66 <para>This appendix should be read in conjunction with the instructions
67 contained in the earlier chapters. It contains additions and in some
68 cases, modifications, to the directions contained in those
69 chapters. It is organised into 3 main sections, corresponding to the
70 topics of the earlier chapters.

120 <title>Overview: Installing Server Functionality</title>
122 <para>In adddition to the items described, you must also create
123 the Authentication Server as a database server process. The procedure
124 for creating the initial security mechanisms is also changed.</para>

204 <title>Initialising Cell Security with kaserver </title>
207 <para>The following instructions should be followed in place of
208 those in <link linkend="HDRWQ53">Initializing Cell Security</link>
212 <para>Begin by creating the following two initial entries in the
213 Authentication Database:
216 <para>A generic administrative account, called
217 <emphasis role="bold">admin</emphasis> by convention. If you
218 choose to assign a different name, substitute it throughout the
219 remainder of this document.</para>
221 <para>After you complete the installation of the first machine,
222 you can continue to have all administrators use the
223 <emphasis role="bold">admin</emphasis> account, or you can create
224 a separate administrative account for each of them. The latter
225 scheme implies somewhat more overhead, but provides a more
226 informative audit trail for administrative operations.</para>
230 <para>The entry for AFS server processes, called
231 <emphasis role="bold">afs</emphasis>. No user logs in under this
232 identity, but the Authentication Server's Ticket Granting Service
233 (TGS) module uses the associated key to encrypt the server
234 tickets that it grants to AFS clients for presentation to server
235 processes during mutual authentication. (The chapter in the
236 <emphasis>OpenAFS Administration Guide</emphasis> about cell
237 configuration and administration describes the role of server
238 encryption keys in mutual authentication.)</para>
240 <para>In Step <link linkend="AppendixLIWQ58">7</link>, you also
241 place the initial AFS server encryption key into the <emphasis
242 role="bold">/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile</emphasis> file. The AFS server
243 processes refer to this file to learn the server
244 encryption key when they need to decrypt server tickets.</para>

251 commands in all of the AFS suites.</para>

755 <emphasis>pam_setcred()</emphasis> are older versions of the
756 samba server. Nevertheless, using applications with
757 working pam session management is recommended as this setup
758 conforms better with the PAM definitions.</para>

766 <para>This options is identical to "set_token" except that no
767 new PAG is generated. This is necessary to handle
768 processes like xlock or xscreensaver. It is not enough to just
769 unlock the screen for a user who
770 reactivated his session by typing in the correct AFS password, but
771 one may also need fresh tokens with a full lifetime in
772 order to work on, and the new token must be refreshed in the
773 already existing PAG for the processes that have been
774 started. This is achieved using this option.</para>
779 <term><emphasis role="bold"><computeroutput>use_klog</computeroutput></emphasis></term>
782 <para>Activating this switch causes authentication to be done by
783 calling the external program "klog". One program requiring
784 this is for example <emphasis>kdm</emphasis> of KDE 2.x.</para>
789 <term><emphasis role="bold"><computeroutput>dont_fork</computeroutput></emphasis></term>
792 <para>Usually, the password verification and token establishment
793 is performed in a sub process. Using this option pam_afs does not
794 fork and performs all actions in a single process.
795 <emphasis role="bold">Only use this option in cases where you
796 notice serious problems caused by the sub process.</emphasis>
797 This option has been developed in respect to
798 the "mod_auth_pam"-project (see also
799 <ulink url="http://pam.sourceforge.net/mod_auth_pam/">mod_auth_pam</ulink>).

812 <para>Normally the tokens are deleted (in memory) after the

814 untouched. <emphasis role="bold">This behaviour was the default
815 in pam_afs until openafs-1.1.1!</emphasis></para>
820 <term><emphasis role="bold"><computeroutput>remainlifetime</computeroutput> <emphasis>sec</emphasis></emphasis></term>
823 <para>The tokens are kept active for <emphasis>sec</emphasis>
824 seconds before they are deleted. X display managers i.e.
825 are used to inform the applications started in the X session
826 before the logout and then end themselves. If the token
827 was deleted immediately the applications would have no chance
828 to write back their settings to i.e. the user's AFS home
829 space. This option may help to avoid the problem.</para>

1067 <title>Enabling kaserver based AFS Login on Solaris Systems</title>
1069 <para>At this point you incorporate AFS into the operating system's
1070 Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) scheme. PAM
1071 integrates all authentication mechanisms on the machine, including
1072 login, to provide the security infrastructure for
1073 authenticated access to and from the machine.</para>
1075 <para>Explaining PAM is beyond the scope of this document. It is
1076 assumed that you understand the syntax and meanings of
1077 settings in the PAM configuration file (for example, how the
1078 <computeroutput>other</computeroutput> entry works, the effect of
1079 marking an entry as <computeroutput>required</computeroutput>,
1080 <computeroutput>optional</computeroutput>, or
1081 <computeroutput>sufficient</computeroutput>, and so on).</para>
1083 <para>The following instructions explain how to alter the entries in the
1084 PAM configuration file for each service for which you
1085 wish to use AFS authentication. Other configurations possibly also
1086 work, but the instructions specify the recommended and
1087 tested configuration.</para>
1090 <para>The instructions specify that you mark each entry as
1091 <computeroutput>optional</computeroutput>. However, marking some
1092 modules as optional can mean that they grant access to the
1093 corresponding service even when the user does not meet all of the
1094 module's requirements. In some operating system revisions,
1095 for example, if you mark as optional the module that controls
1096 login via a dial-up connection, it allows users to login without
1097 providing a password. See the <emphasis>OpenAFS Release
1098 Notes</emphasis> for a discussion of any limitations that apply to
1099 this operating system.</para>
1101 <para>Also, with some operating system versions you must install

1121 authentication succeeds if the password provided to the module
1122 listed first is the user's correct AFS password. For
