kerberosautoconfig(8) BSD System Manager's Manual kerberosautoconfig(8)
NAME
kerberosautoconfig - Kerberos - Open Directory Single Sign On
SYNOPSIS
kerberosautoconfig [-f directory_node] [-o output_dir]
[-r realm_name -m master_kdc] [-u] [-v debug_level]
DESCRIPTION
The kerberosautoconfig command creates the edu.mit.Kerberos file from
information stored in the open directory config record named Ker-
berosClient. The existing edu.mit.Kerberos file is only replaced if the
autogenerated header is present and the generation_id in the Ker-
berosClient config record is greater than that within the file. The
default location of the output file is /Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Ker-
beros. If the machine is standalone, this command will do nothing (unless
the -u option is used)
Defifintions
directory_node
An open directory node path specifier. Such as /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1
output_dir
The directory in which kerberosautoconfig deposits the
edu.mit.Kerberos file
realm_name
Name of the Kerberos realm that will be the default when creat-
ing a file from scratch
master_kdc
Host name of the master KDC for the default realm when creating
a file from scratch
debug_level
Specifies the amount of debugging information printed to stdout,
default is 1
Flags:
-f Tells kerberosautoconfig to look in the specified open directory
node for the KerberosClient config record.
-o Specifies the directory in which kerberosautoconfig will write
the new edu.mit.Kerberos file into
-r kerberosautoconfig can create an edu.mit.Kerberos file from
information passed on the command line. Use the -r and -m flags
to specify the default realm and master KDC for that realm.
-m See above
-u Forces an update of the file. Will overwrite an existing non-
autogenerated edu.mit.Kerberos file. Use with caution.
-v Specifies the amount of debugging information printed to stdout,
default is 1
FILES
/Library/Preferences/edu.mit.Kerberos The main Kerberos config
file (also known as
krb5.conf on other systems)

BUGS
kerberosautoconfig looks for the KerberosClient config record in each of
the open directory nodes on the search path. It merges the realm informa-
tion from any KerberosClient config records it finds, but it only checks
the generation_id from the first config record found.
