Syntax
       /var/dss/kerberos/bin/ext_srvtab [-n] [hostname ...]

Arguments
       hostname Name of the service key file.

Description
       The  utility  extracts  service	key files from the Kerberos database.  When you invoke the utility, it prompts you to enter the master key
       string for the database.  If the -n option is specified, ext_srvtab fetches the master key from the master key cache file, produced by

       For each hostname that you specify in the command line, ext_srvtab creates the service key file hostname-new-srvtab. This file contains all
       the  entries in the Kerberos database with an instance field that matches hostname.  In addition, the hostname-new-srvtab file contains all
       the keys registered for Kerberos services that can run on the host specified in hostname.

kdb_edit(8krb)															    kdb_edit(8krb)

Name
       kdb_edit - Kerberos database editing utility

Syntax
       /var/dss/kerberos/bin/kdb_edit [-n]

Description
       You  use the command to create or change principals stored in the Kerberos database.  When you invoke kdb_edit, the command prompts you for
       the Kerberos database master key and verifies that the key is the same as the master key of the Kerberos database.  If  the  -n	option	is
       used, the key is fetched from the master key file.

       Once  the  master  key is verified, kdb_edit begins a loop that prompts you for the principal and instance name to modify. If kdb_edit does
       not find an entry, you can create one. Once kdb_edit finds or creates an entry, you can set the password, expiration date,  maximum  ticket
       lifetime, and attributes of a principal.

       The kdb_edit command displays, in brackets, the default values for the expiration dates, maximum ticket lifetimes, and attributes.  You can
       select any default by pressing the return key. The kdb_edit command indicates that you have successfully created or  changed  an  entry	by
       displaying the message, "Edit O.K."

       There is no default password for a principal.  However, if you enter RANDOM as the password for a principal, kdb_edit selects a random Data
       Encryption Standard (DES) key for the principal.

       Whenever the Kerberos database is changed by the modification time of is updated.  The file indicates the age of the database.

Options
       -n     If you specify the command with the -n option, kdb_edit fetches the key from the master key file.
