Authentication
When Authenticate is called the component will attempt to authenticate the user with the Key Distribution Center (KDC). The component will communicate with the KDCHost to obtain a service ticket and populate AuthToken. The following properties are required when calling this method:
A typical sequence of messages would be:
- KRB_AS_REQ -> KDC
- KRB_AS_REP <- KDC
- KRB_TGS_REQ -> KDC
- KRB_TGS_REP <- KDC
- AuthToken is populated with the constructed KRB_AP_REP message.
Communication with the KDCHost can be seen through the PITrail event.
