KDB_UTIL(8)					      KDB_UTIL(8)

NAME
       kdb_util	 -   Kerberos  key  distribution  center database
       utility

SYNOPSIS
       kdb_util operation filename

DESCRIPTION
       kdb_util allows the Kerberos key distribution center (KDC)
       database administrator to perform utility functions on the
       database.

       Operation must be one of the following:

       load	 initializes the KDC database  with  the  records
		 described  by	the  text  contained  in the file
		 filename.  Any existing database is overwritten.

       dump	 dumps	the  KDC database into a text representa-
		 tion in the file filename.

       slave_dump
		 performs a database dump like	the  dump  opera-
		 tion,	and additionally creates a semaphore file
		 signaling  the	 propagation  software	that   an
		 update	 is  available	for distribution to slave
		 KDC databases.

       new_master_key
		 prompts for the old and new master key	 strings,
		 and then dumps the KDC database into a text rep-
		 resentation in the file filename.  The	 keys  in
		 the text representation are encrypted in the new
		 master key.

       convert_old_db
		 prompts for the  master  key  string,	and  then
		 dumps	the  KDC database into a text representa-
		 tion  in  the	file  filename.	   The	 existing
		 database  is  assumed	to be encrypted using the
		 old format (encrypted by the key schedule of the
		 master	 key);	the  dumped database is encrypted
		 using the new format  (encrypted  directly  with
		 master key).

DIAGNOSTICS
       "verify_master_key: Invalid master key, does not match
       database."
			   The	master	key  string  entered  was
			   incorrect.
