I'm using externally because I am not using a directory service.

With kerberos, you shouldn't do "identified externally", you should do "identified globally". And yes, gooey tools are just for wimps. Real programmers use "ed".

I'm trying to get Kerberos authentication to work. I am not using LDAP at all. I just want to authenticate with Kerberos.

Kerberos itself is working fine. "kinit" and "klist" work as expected. I had our security admin create a service principle. Does there have to be one per machine or one per database? Does the service principle need to match the sql*net service name? When one issues okinit <username> what is the format of the username? No matter what I use okinit does not request a password and oklist shows no credentials.

After configuring sqlnet.ora. I am testing now on the database machine itself any connects which employ that version fail with ora-12699 whether or not they are identified "externally" or via the database.

Being old school, I don't like using aids such as netmgr. Nearly all these types of tools are awful when they first come out. But I tried to use them to setup Kerberos authentication. I save the network configuration, but when I go back into the tool nothing appears to be saved. Is this normal?
