Enable krb5 authentication for SSH
Posted on Thu, Sep 04, 2025 at 14:49 by Hubertus A. Haniel
After joining an AD it is very simple to enable kerberos authentication for SSH assuning your Windows ID and Unix ID match. - All you need to do is add the following 2 lines to /etc/ssh/sshd_config
GSSAPIAuthentication yes
GSSAPIKeyExchange yes
Al you then have to do is enable these options on your ssh client and you should be able to login to your linux systems with the credentials on the windows machine joined to the same domain.
