.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
.I krb.conf
|
1999-09-19 14:19:32 +00:00
|
|
|
contains configuration information describing the Kerberos realm(s) and the
|

|
|
|
Kerberos key distribution center (KDC) servers for known realms.

.I krb.conf
|
1999-09-19 14:19:32 +00:00
|
|
|
starts with a definition of the local realm on the first line, this is
|
|
|
|
|
followed by any number lines defining supplementary local realms. The
|
|
|
|
|
rest of the file consists of lines indicating realm/host entries. The
|
|
|
|
|
first token is a realm name, and the second is a server specification
|
|
|
|
|
of a host running a KDC for that realm. The words "admin server"
|
|
|
|
|
following the hostname indicate that the host also provides an
|
|
|
|
|
administrative database server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To be able to communicate with the KDC through a firewall it is
|
|
|
|
|
sometimes necessary to tunnel requests over HTTP or TCP. Tunnel
|
|
|
|
|
protocols and port numbers are specified in the server specification
|
|
|
|
|
using the syntax [(udp|tcp|http)/]hostname[:port].
