NAME
     kprop - Kerberos database propagation program

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/krb5/kprop [-d] [-f file] [-p port-number]
          [-r realm] [-s keytab] [host]


DESCRIPTION
     kprop is a command-line utility used for propagating a  Ker-
     beros  database  from a master KDC to a slave KDC. This com-
     mand must be run on the master KDC. See the  Solaris  System
     Administration  Guide, Vol. 6 on how to set up periodic pro-
     pagation between the master KDC and slave KDCs.


     To propagate a Kerberos database, the  following  conditions
     must be met:

         o    The slave KDCs must  have  an  /etc/krb5/kpropd.acl
              file  that  contains  the principals for the master
              KDC and all the slave KDCs.

         o    A keytab containing a  host  principal  entry  must
              exist on each slave KDC.

         o    The database to be propagated must be dumped  to  a
              file using kdb5_util(1M).

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -d                Enable debug mode. Default is  debug  mode
                       disabled.


     -f file           File to be sent to the slave KDC.  Default
                       is the /var/krb5/slave_datatrans file.


     -p port-number    Propagate  port-number.  Default  is  port
                       754.


     -r realm          Realm  where   propagation   will   occur.
                       Default realm is the local realm.


     -s keytab         Location of the keytab.  Default  location
                       is /etc/krb5/krb5.keytab.

OPERANDS

     host    Name of the slave KDC.


EXAMPLES
     Example 1 Propagating the Kerberos Database


     The following example propagates the Kerberos database  from
     the  /tmp/slave_data  file  to  the  slave  KDC  london. The
     machine london must have a host principal keytab  entry  and
     the  kpropd.acl  file  must contain an entry for the all the
     KDCs.


       # kprop -f /tmp/slave_data london



FILES
     /etc/krb5/kpropd.acl         List of principals of  all  the
                                  KDCs;  resides  on  each  slave
                                  KDC.


     /etc/krb5/krb5.keytab        Keytab for Kerberos clients.


     /var/krb5/slave_datatrans    Kerberos database propagated to
                                  the KDC slaves.
