Hey all ,


i am training to installa K2 over distrebuted enviroment as follow


SharePoint App server


SharePoint WFE server


2 SQL clustered


i read the k2 help documentation two times , i cant find steps to do so as in old help file for Kerberos,, they are only talking about the pass through  the only points i understood from that document is follow ,,


1)SPNs for k2 service account should not be sets or checked while installation ( if so the K2 will use kerberos installation ) Not sure ,,,,


2) there is node named DelegationContext in K2HostServer.Config   can take ttwo values:-


                A) Client Kerberos


                 😎 ClientWindows , i used this cuz i am using only forms authontication ( windows identies )


3)Credentials Delegation ok i have two option but where i can configure them !?


From my understanding , the only thing tha i need to do is choose the pass throw auth. nothing more ,, not like the kerberos 10s of steps to configure ,,


Am i understanding those point correctly ?!


Any one have document step by step for pass throw authentication !?


and how i can test that i had installed and the authentication successfully ??

any one here to help !?


You are right. It is as simple as that.


All you need to do to use Pass through authentication is set DelegationContext value to ClientWindows and restart the service. If you want to know more about pass through authentication, download the white paper here: http://help.k2.com/en/displaycontent.aspx?id=3894


Thx man ,


i have problem on K2 server ports ( http://www.k2underground.com/forums/t/13817.aspx  )


if the k2 pass throw that simple , it should not be responsible for that problem right ?!
