Working with GSSAPI Backends

Virtual Directory Server v5.5 now provides support for Kerberos-enabled backends via SASL/GSSAPI. For Microsoft Windows users, this will vastly improve Active Directory integration, as Kerberos is the default authentication and encryption method used in these environments. In this video demonstration, we take a look at how quickly and easily you can configure a Virtual Directory Server instance to connect to an Active Directory instance using GSSAPI to handle authentication and to secure all of your backend communications.
