NAME

       k5srvutil - host key table (keytab) manipulation utility

SYNOPSIS

       k5srvutil operation [ -i ] [ -f filename ]

DESCRIPTION

       k5srvutil allows a system manager to list or change keys currently in his 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	 changes  all  the keys in the keytab to new randomly-generated keys, updating the keys in the Kerberos server's database to match
		 by using the kadmin protocol.	If a key's version number doesn't match the version number stored in the Kerberos  server's  data-
		 base,	 then  the  operation  will fail.  The old keys are retained so that existing tickets continue to work.  If the -i flag is
		 given, k5srvutil will prompt for yes or no before changing each key.  If the -k option is used, the old and new keys will be dis-
		 played.

       delold	 Deletes keys that are not the most recent version from the keytab.  This operation should be used some time after a change opera-
		 tion to  remove old keys.  If the -i flag is used, then the program prompts the user whether the old keys  associated	with  each
		 principal should be removed.

       delete	 deletes particular keys in the keytab, interactively prompting for each key.

       In all cases, the default file used is /etc/krb5.keytab file
	unless this is overridden by the -f option.

       k5srvutil uses the kadmin program to edit the keytab in place.  However, old keys are retained, so they are available in case of failure.
