Kerberos is a protocol for verifying the identity of principals
(e.g., a workstation user or a network server) on an open network.
The Kerberos protocol provides a mechanism called pre-authentication
for proving the identity of a principal and for better protecting the
long-term secret of the principal.
This document describes a model for Kerberos pre-authentication
mechanisms. The model describes what state in the Kerberos request a
pre-authentication mechanism is likely to change. It also describes
how multiple pre-authentication mechanisms used in the same request
will interact.
This document also provides common tools needed by multiple pre-
authentication mechanisms. One of these tools is a secure channel
between the client and the KDC with a reply key delivery mechanism;
this secure channel can be used to protect the authentication
exchange thus eliminate offline dictionary attacks. With these
tools, it is relatively straightforward to chain multiple
authentication mechanisms, utilize a different key management system,
or support a new key agreement algorithm.
