Abstract
A server transmits to a server in a server farm a request for membership in the server farm and a first nonce. The server derives a Kerberos service ticket and a Kerberos authenticator, responsive to generating a hash of the server farm name, a passphrase, the name of the server, the name of the server in the server farm, the first nonce, and a second nonce. The server transmits the Kerberos service ticket and the Kerberos authenticator to the server in the server farm. The server in the server farm authenticates the requesting server responsive to the received Kerberos service ticket and the Kerberos authenticator and a generated hash. The server in the server farm transmits, responsive to the authentication, a secret to the requesting server.
