DBeaver Kerberos Authenticated Oracle Database Connection

[DarylAndDaryl]

I am looking to configure DBeaver Community Edition and Enterprise Edition to make a connection to an Oracle database using Kerberos/active directory (AD) authentication. Has anyone been successful at doing this and if so, can you share how?

Hello @DarylAndDaryl

I hope this article can help you https://dbeaver.com/docs/dbeaver/Kerberos-Authentication/

Thank you for the document, but that doesn't really help. That document illustrates Oracle OS authentication to an Oracle database, and I am trying to get DBeaver Pro to user Kerberos authentication, which I was able to get working using kinit, but my company doesn't want the end user having to run kinit every day to get a token. I have successfully made a Kerberos authentication to Oracle databases without a token for products like Oracle's sqlplus and SQL Developer, I've successfully test ODBC and OLE DB connections, and I successfully test MS Access and MS Excel connecting to Oracle database. The only thing left is DBeaver.
