NAME
k5srvutil - host key table (keytab) manipulation utility
SYNOPSIS
k5srvutil operation [-i] [-f filename] [-e keysalts]
DESCRIPTION
k5srvutil allows an administrator to list or change keys currently in a
keytab or to add new keys to the keytab.
operation must be one of the following:
list Lists the keys in a keytab showing version number and principal
name.
change Uses the kadmin protocol to update the keys in the Kerberos
database to new randomly-generated keys, and updates the keys in
the keytab to match. If a key's version number doesn't match
the version number stored in the Kerberos server's database,
then the operation will fail. Old keys are retained in the
keytab so that existing tickets continue to work. If the -i
flag is given, k5srvutil will prompt for confirmation before
changing each key. If the -k option is given, the old and new
keys will be displayed. Ordinarily, keys will be generated with
the default encryption types and key salts. This can be over-
ridden with the -e option.
delold Deletes keys that are not the most recent version from the
keytab. This operation should be used some time after a change
operation to remove old keys, after existing tickets issued for
the service have expired. If the -i flag is given, then k5srvu-
til will prompt for confirmation for each principal.
delete Deletes particular keys in the keytab, interactively prompting
for each key.
In all cases, the default keytab is used unless this is overridden by
the -f option.
k5srvutil uses the kadmin(1) program to edit the keytab in place.
