Moonshot GSS is currently available only on a self-build basis on macOS El Capitan (The Moonshot GSS libraries are compatible with macOS. A client for macOS 10.12 ) or later.We are currently working hard to deliver a complete client package that includes a macOS-native ID Selector with Keychain integration and complete (un-)installation supportand later is available for download. Earlier versions are supported on a self-build basis only.

We do not support macOS as a server OS.

Configuration

Setting the default path

The newer versions of macOS use sandboxing. This means that most Unix binaries in /usr/bin will not load external GSSAPI mechanisms other than the approved Apple versions inside the sandbox.

To resolve this, as the super user, copy the binary in question to /usr/local/bin which is outside the designated sandbox, then adjust the /etc/paths file to refer to /usr/local/bin first. That way the non-sandboxed version of the binary will be found and loaded first.

Credential file

macOS support currently uses the .gss_eap_id file in your home directory.

Create a .gss_eap_id file in your user's home directory:

text1trueSample Camford .gss_eap_id

This file shows a sample .gss_eap_id file used with a Camford credential
