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 securely propagate a Kerberos V5 database dump file from the master Kerberos server to a slave Kerberos server, which is
       specified by slave_host.  The dump file must be created by kdb5_util(8).

OPTIONS

       -r realm
	      Specifies the realm of the master server.

       -f file
	      Specifies the filename where the dumped principal database file is to be found; by default the  dumped  database	file  is  normally
	      /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/slave_datatrans.

       -P port
	      Specifies the port to use to contact the kpropd(8) server on the remote host.

       -d     Prints debugging information.

       -s keytab
	      Specifies the location of the keytab file.

ENVIRONMENT

       kprop uses the following environment variable:

       o KRB5_CONFIG

NAME

       kpropd - Kerberos V5 slave KDC update server

SYNOPSIS

       kprop [ -r realm ] [ -f slave_dumpfile ] [ -F principal_database ] [ -p kdb5_util_prog ] [ -d ] [ -S ] [ -P port ]

DESCRIPTION

       kpropd  is the server which accepts connections from the kprop(8) program.  kpropd accepts the dumped KDC database and places it in a file,
       and then runs kdb5_util(8) to load the dumped database into the active database which is used by krb5kdc(8).   Thus,  the  master  Kerberos
       server  can  use  kprop(8)  to propagate its database to the slave slavers.  Upon a successful download of the KDC database file, the slave
       Kerberos server will have an up-to-date KDC database.

       Normally, kpropd is invoked out of inetd(8).  This is done by adding a line to the inetd.conf file which looks like this:

       kprop	 stream    tcp	nowait	  root /usr/kerberos/sbin/kpropd     kpropd

       However, kpropd can also run as a standalone deamon, if the -S option is turned on.  This is done for debugging purposes, or  if  for  some
       reason the system administrator just doesn't want to run it out of inetd(8).

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  stored;  by default the dumped database file is
	      KPROPD_DEFAULT_FILE (normally /var/kerberos/from_master).

       -p     allows the user to specify the pathname to the kdb5_util(8) program; by default the pathname used is KPROPD_DEFAULT_KDB5_UTIL  (nor-
	      mally /usr/kerberos/sbin/kdb5_util).

       -S     turn  on	standalone  mode.   Normally, kpropd is invoked out of inetd(8) so it expects a network connection to be passed to it from
	      inetd (8).  If the -S option is specified, kpropd will put itself into the background, and wait for connections to the KPROP_SERVICE
	      port (normally krb5_prop).

       -d     turn  on	debug mode.  In this mode, if the -S option is selected, kpropd will not detach itself from the current job and run in the
	      background.  Instead, it will run in the foreground and print out debugging messages during the database propagation.

       -P     allow for an alternate port number for kpropd to listen on. This is only useful if the program is run in standalone mode.

FILES

       kpropd.acl  Access file for kpropd.  Each entry is a line containing the principal of a host from which the local machine will  allow  Ker-
		   beros database propagation via kprop.
