Description Hai Zaar 2006-12-05 22:11:58 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

I'd like to have Kerberos credentials delegation feature in Konqueror.

Quoting from this http://www.grolmsnet.de/kerbtut/credentialsdelegation.html

Konqueror does support GSSAPI, but not credentials delegation out of the box. So the ugly way to fix it is:
   1. get the kdelibs-x-y-z source package.
   2. edit file
      kioslave/http/http.cc
   3. change
      OM_uint32 req_flags = 0;
      to
      OM_uint32 req_flags = GSS_C_DELEG_FLAG ;
Warning:this changes Konqueror to do always credentials delegation.
A configurable behavior (for example based on target-hostname, like Firefox does) will be a lot better. Maybe someone adds a configuration dialog to Konqueror?

Is same as (or at least very similar to) http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150954

SVN commit 1118669 by adawit:

- Added support for passing configuration info to the authentication object.

- Added a configuration option for enabling credentials delegation for GSSAPI (Negotiate)
  authentication. To activate this featurei globally, simply add 

  "DelegateCredentialsOn=true" 

  to the global section of either $KDEHOME/share/config/kio_httprc or $KDEHOME/share/config/kioslaverc 
  files. To activate it per host/domain, first create a config group in either one of the two files 
  mentioned and then add the option. For example,

  [foo.bar]
  "DelegateCredentialsOn=true"

  That way the flag can be enabled only as needed.
