159
+ When you authenticate with Kerberos on Windows, the
160
+ :guilabel:`Principal` you specify must match the principal of the
161
+ security context that |compass-short| is running. Normally, this
162
+ is the logged-in user who is running |compass-short|.
163
+
164
+ To authenticate as a different Kerberos user, run |compass| as the
165
+ chosen user and specify the :guilabel:`Principal` for that user.
166
+ To run |compass| as a different user, either:
167
+
168
+ - Hold :guilabel:`Shift` and right-click the |compass| program
169
+ icon to select :guilabel:`Run as a different user`.
170
+
171
+ - Use the ``runas`` command-line tool. For example, the following
172
+ command runs |compass| as a user named ``admin``:
173
+
174
+ .. code-block:: sh
175
+
176
+ runas /profile /user:mymachine\admin <path to MongoDB Compass>
177
+
178
+ After you start |compass| as the chosen user, to authenticate
179
+ against your Kerberos-enabled MongoDB deployment, specify the
180
+ :guilabel:`Principal` for the corresponding user.
