ext_srvtab - extracts service key files.
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.
Options-n Causes ext_srvtab utility to fetch the master key from the master key cache file.

kdb_util - Kerberos database utility
Syntax
/var/dss/kerberos/bin/kdb_util operation filename [ database ]
Arguments
operation
Function to perform on the database. The operation argument must be one of the following values:
load Converts the database in file filename, to format and overwrites the database specified.
dump Converts the database into form, and writes the result to file, filename.
slave_dump
Performs the same function as dump, and creates the file when finished. The is used by to determine if a slave_dump is in
progress, or if it did not complete successfully.
new_master_key
Prompts you for the old key of the Kerberos database as well as a new master key. It converts the database into format
and, at the same time, decrypts those sections of the database encrypted with the old master key and re-encrypts them with
the new master key. The result is written to the file, filename.
filename The name of the source file for the load operation or the destination file for the operations: dump, slave_dump, and new_mas-
ter_key.
database The name of the database. If the argument is not included, the Kerberos database is stored in files and by default.
Description
The command allows the Kerberos administrator to perform several functions on the entire Kerberos database of a master or slave Kerberos
server in one operation. The database argument specifies the name of the Kerberos database. The Kerberos database utility reads from and
writes to the Kerberos database and, in addition, it reads from and writes to a file in format: filename. A file is an ASCII representa-
tion of a Kerberos database. The functions that can be specified by the operation argument are listed in the Arguments section.
Whenever the Kerberos database is changed by the modification time of is updated. The file indicates the age of the database.
