Set environment variables

To use Kerberos authentication to connect to DB2 or SAP Sybase ASE, you need to set the required environment variables on the Secure Agent machine.

setenv KRB5CCNAME <Absolute path and file name of the credentials cache file>

setenv KRB5_CONFIG <Absolute path of the Kerberos configuration file>\krb5.conf

After you set the environmental variables, you need to restart the Secure Agent.

Alternatively, you can add the environment variables when you create an ODBC connection with the subtype as

DB2

SAP Sybase ASE

Enter the KRB5_CONFIG and KRB5CCNAME details in the

Kerberos Connection Properties

field in the ODBC connection.

For example, add the properties in the following format:

KRB5_CONFIG=<Absolute path of the Kerberos configuration file>\krb5.conf;KRB5CCNAME=<Absolute path of the credential cache file>/<File name>

Ensure that you separate each key-value pair with a semicolon.
