Mobile Kerberos SSO

Andre Passos May 4, 2017 4:56 AM

Hi, we're trying to deploy Kerberos SSO for Tableau Mobile with MobileIron integration

We already have Kerberos set up and working for Exchange and internal SharePoint websites.

We followed the steps described in Deploy Tableau Mobile with MobileIron but continue to get prompted for credentials.

In the same guide it's mentioned a "special configuration" for Kerberos but it doesn't say what it is.

Does anyone have a similar environment with this set up?

Thanks.

OK, single sign on with Kerberos has now worked but only if the device is connected to the internal WiFi network.
If the iOS device is connected to the VPN and I try to log in to Tableau I keep getting prompted to put my credentials.

I was able to capture the traffic from the iPhone using Wireshark whilst logging in to Tableau using SSO connected to the Internal WiFi network and noticed that the device connects to an internal domain controller on port 88 to get a valid Kerberos ticket to authenticate against the Tableau server.
