# GSSServiceName

The GSSAPI service name that you want to use for the Content Component service. You must specify the GSSAPI service name, instance name (fully qualified host name), and the Kerberos realm (normally the domain name in upper case).

You can also set `GSSServiceName` to an asterisk (`*`) to allow clients to authenticate to any service principal in the Content Component service's keytab, rather than requiring you to select a single principal.

If you enable GSSAPI authentication, Content Component uses this value as the GSSAPI service name to identify itself. You enable GSSAPI authentication by setting the `RequireGSSAuth` parameter in the appropriate section:

- ACI port: `[Server]` RequireGSSAuth
- Service port: `[Service]` RequireGSSAuth
- Index port: `[IndexServer]` RequireGSSAuth

NOTE: You cannot use this method for GSSAPI authorization when you use a unified configuration, or if you use a Proxy component to distribute actions.
