MachDB 0.5.1 (Default branch)

Image MachDB is machine database to catalog of the changing state of your hosts. It consists of a database, an aggregator, an XML spec, and some example information gathering scripts. Along with a Web UI, these form the basis of a system that will allow you to catalog the current and historical state of the hosts in your infrastructure. It has been designed with scale in mind, and the goal is to support 10k hosts. It is being actively developed and is used in production at a few organizations. License: GNU General Public License v2 Changes:
Bugs were fixed. The scheme was changed. The XML spec was updated. The filesystem and disks have had the limit raised from 2TB to 16 zettabytes. The OS name is now limited to 100 characters.

Name
       kdb_init - initialize the Kerberos master database

Syntax
       /var/dss/kerberos/bin/kdb_init [ realm-name ] [ database-name ]

Arguments
       realm-name   The realm of the Kerberos database.

       database-name
		    A database specified so that the current and files are not overwritten.

Description
       The  utility  creates  and  initializes	the Kerberos master database.  The utility creates the database files: and It also initializes the
       database by adding three database entries: the master database principal, a Kerberos default principal, the ticket-granting service princi-
       pal ( and the password changing principal,

       The master database principal is the entry to the database itself.  You cannot use or modify the database without the master database pass-
       word.  The Kerberos default principal provides a template for service principals.

       The ticket-granting service, is used by Kerberos principals to obtain tickets to communicate with other Kerberos principals.  The password-
       changing principal is not used.

       If  realm-name  is  omitted  when  you enter the command, prompts for it. The program also prompts for the master database key.	You cannot
       manipulate the database without this key.

       By using database-name, you can create another database to prevent the current and files from being overwritten.

       After using to set up the master database, you may want to use the utility to hide the  master  database  password  on  the  database  host
       machine.  This  enables	Kerberos  administration programs to access and manipulate the master database, without needing the password to be
       entered manually.
