NAME¶

kprop - propagate a Kerberos V5 principal database to a slave server

SYNOPSIS¶

kprop [-r realm] [-f file] [-d] [-P port] [-s keytab] slave_host

DESCRIPTION¶

kprop is used to propagate a Kerberos V5 database dump file from the master Kerberos server to a slave Kerberos server, which is specified by slave_host. This is done by transmitting the dumped database file to the slave server over an encrypted, secure channel. The dump file must be created by kdb5_util, and is normally KPROP_DEFAULT_FILE (/var/kerberos/krb5kdc/slave_datatrans).

OPTIONS¶

-r realm

specifies the realm of the master server; by default the realm returned by krb5_default_local_realm(3) is used.

-f file

specifies the filename where the dumped principal database file is to be found; by default the dumped database file is KPROP_DEFAULT_FILE (normally /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/slave_datatrans).

-P port

specifies the port to use to contact the kpropd server on the remote host.

-d

prints debugging information.

-s keytab

specifies the location of the keytab file.
