Additional authentication methods

[huaraz]

Is it possible to add additional authentication/authorisation methods like Radius ?

or on Windows integrate with Active Directory

or on Unix do authentication with Kerberos and authorisation with LDAP ?

Thank you

I am attempting to query a SQL DB sitting on a Windows system, using a splunkforwarder using JDBC from a SLES 11 box.
Is there a simple way of doing this if the SQl DB is using Windows authentication ?

Many thanks for any info
David.

Yes. There is excellent information on this in the docs. A good start would be http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/admin/ConfigureSplunkToUsePAMOrRADIUSAuthenticati... (PAM/RADIUS/other) and http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/SetupuserauthenticationwithLDAP (LDAP).
