Caché Installation Guide - InterSystems Documentation

Preparing for Caché Advanced Security
Important:
If your security environment is more complex than those this document describes,
contact the InterSystems Worldwide Response Center (WRC) for guidance in setting
up such an environment.
D.1 Preparing the Security Environment
These sections describe the installation preparation for three types of environments:
1. Windows-only Environment
2. Mixed Environment Using Windows Domain Controller
3. Non-Windows Environment
D.1.1 Windows-only Environment
This configuration uses a Windows domain controller for KDC functionality with Caché servers and
clients on Windows machines. A domain administrator creates domain accounts for running the Caché
services on Caché servers.
See the Create Service Accounts for Windows Caché Servers section for the requirements of using
Windows Caché servers.
D.1.2 Mixed Environment Using Windows Domain Controller
This configuration uses a Windows domain controller with Caché servers and clients on a mix of
Windows and non-Windows machines. See the following two sections for the requirements for using
both Windows and non-Windows Cache servers:
• Create Service Accounts for Windows Caché Servers
• Create Service Accounts for Non-Windows Caché Servers
D.1.3 Non-Windows Environment
This configuration uses a UNIX-based or OpenVMS Kerberos KDC with Caché servers and clients
all on non-Windows machines. See the following two sections for the requirements for using a UNIX,
Mac, or OpenVMS KDC and Caché servers:
• Create Service Accounts for Non-Windows Caché Servers with a KDC
• Testing Kerberos KDC Functions
