If a key's version number doesn't match the +version number stored in the Kerberos server's database, then the operation will fail. The old keys are retained +so that existing tickets continue to work. +If the \-i flag is given, +.I k5srvutil +will prompt for yes or no before changing each key. If the \-k +option is used, the old and new keys will be displayed. +.TP 10n +.I delold +Deletes keys that are not the most recent version from the keytab. This operation +should be used some time after a change operation to remove old keys. +If the \-i flag is used, then the program prompts the user +whether the old keys associated with each principal should be removed. +.TP 10n +.I delete +deletes particular keys in the keytab, interactively prompting for +each key. + +.PP +In all cases, the default file used is /etc/krb5.keytab file + unless this is overridden by the \-f option. + + +.I k5srvutil +uses the kadmin program to edit the keytab in place. However, old keys are retained, so +they are available in case of failure. + +.SH SEE ALSO +kadmin(8), ktutil(8) + |
