/etc/kerberosIV/krb.conf - Kerberos configuration file

DESCRIPTION
krb.conf contains configuration information describing the Kerberos realm and the Kerberos key distribution center (KDC) servers for known realms.

krb.conf contains the name of the local realm in the first line, followed by lines indicating realm/host entries. The first token is a realm name, and the second is the hostname 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. For example:
ATHENA.MIT.EDU
ATHENA.MIT.EDU kerberos-1.mit.edu admin server
ATHENA.MIT.EDU kerberos-2.mit.edu
LCS.MIT.EDU kerberos.lcs.mit.edu admin server
