The talk will try to explain in very high level terms the key aspects of the Kerberos protocol with particular focus on the most common pitfalls engineers fall into when they need to use it. The presentation will focus on the needs of the developer, including what APIs to use and avoid, how to structure their applications to be Kerberos ready, and how to deal with obscure topics like names in the Kerberos and GSSAPI world in a sane manner.
