LDAP Server allows you to access a specified server (by providing an IP address) running
the LDAP protocol.
LDAP Base DN — allows you to look up user information by its Distinguished Name (DN).
Use TLS (Transport Layer Security) lookups — this option allows LDAP to send encrypted
user names and passwords to an LDAP server before authentication.

For more information about Kerberos, see Using Kerberos 5 on Red Hat Linux in the Official Red
Hat Linux Reference Guide. There are three options to choose from here:
Realm — this option allows you to access a network that uses Kerberos, composed of one or
a few servers (also known as KDCs) and a potentially large number of clients.
KDC this option allows you access to the Key Distribution Center (KDC), a machine that
issues Kerberos tickets (sometimes called a Ticket Granting Server or TGS).
Admin Server — this option allows you to access a server running kadmind.

must supply two pieces of information here:
SMB Server Indicates which SMB server your workstation will connect to for authentica-
