Allows your computer to log into certain services automatically without you having to enter (and re-enter) your password (it's a SSO—single sign-on—service). Kerberos v5 is baked into Windows and Internet Explorer and works great with many LDAP-enabled services (for example, Drupal's allows includes a submodule for SSO support). Kerberos is built into Mac OS X as well, but isn't as simple to use and configure with Chrome and FireFox as it is with Explorer on a Windows workstation. You need to do two things before you can use Kerberos for authentication in Chrome/FireFox: • Create a Kerberos ticket with the Ticket Viewer application (/System/Library/CoreServices/Ticket Viewer) or via the command line ( kinit [email protected], then enter your password). ![]() Google is dropping Chrome support for OS X 10.5 Leopard. By Emil Protalinski — in Google. Google has announced plans to drop support for Mac OS X 10.5 in Chrome. Any OS that can boot on a Mac can be set up for dual boot. I typically keep a current version of Mac OS X, and one or two versions back, and can switch between them. See for more detailed instructions. • Configure Chrome's whitelist to allow authentication against any domains you will be using (along with the domain you used with kinit above). In the Terminal, run the following commands: $ defaults write com.google.Chrome AuthServerWhitelist “*.example.com” $ defaults write com.google.Chrome AuthNegotiateDelegateWhitelist “*.example.com” In all the above examples, replace 'example.com' with your domain. Also, for the Chrome defaults, you can add multiple domains with commas separating each. The asterisk is a wildcard, so any subdomain would work. Safari works out of the box if you've created a Kerberos ticket as outlined in step 1; FireFox just needs a couple settings configured on the about:config page. Here’s the full message from Google: Google Chrome on Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) will stop receiving any updates following Chrome 21. This includes new features, security fixes and stability updates. If you’re not sure what OS version you’re on, go to the Apple icon on the top left corner and click About This Mac to find out. If you already have Chrome installed, you can still use Chrome, but it will no longer be auto-updated. In addition, you’ll be unable to install Chrome on any Mac still running 10.5 (which is an OS X version also no longer being updated by Apple). While we understand this is an inconvenience, we are making this change to ensure we can continue to deliver a safe, secure, and stable Chrome for the most Mac users possible. Mac OS X Leopard was released on October 26, 2007, meaning next month it will be five years old. The latest version of the Mac operating system is, which was released this week, but it’s not available for all Macs. It’s not too surprising that Google has made this move. The from show Leopard has only 0.70 percent market share. That’s just a tenth of Mac’s total market share last month: 7.13 percent.
