NAME
kstash - store the KDC master password in a file
SYNOPSIS
kstash [-e string | --enctype=string] [-k file | --key-file=file]
[--convert-file] [--random-key] [--master-key-fd=fd]
[--random-key] [-h | --help] [--version]
DESCRIPTION
kstash reads the Kerberos master key and stores it in a file that will be
used by the KDC.
Supported options:
-e string, --enctype=string
the encryption type to use, defaults to DES3-CBC-SHA1.
-k file, --key-file=file
the name of the master key file.
--convert-file
don't ask for a new master key, just read an old master key file,
and write it back in the new keyfile format.
--random-key
generate a random master key.
--master-key-fd=fd
filedescriptor to read passphrase from, if not specified the
passphrase will be read from the terminal.
FILES
/var/heimdal/m-key is the default keyfile if no other keyfile is
specified. The format of a Heimdal master key is the same as a keytab,
so ktutil list can be used to list the content of the file.
