Overview

krb524d is the Kerberos Version 5 to Version 4 Credentials Conversion daemon. It works in conjuction with a krb5kdc to allow clients to acquire Kerberos version 4 tickets from Kerberos version 5 tickets without specifying a password.

Options

-m[aster]

Use the KDC database to convert credentials. This option cannot be combined with -k[eytab].

-k[eytab]

Use the default keytab to convert credentials. This option cannot be combined with -m[aster].

-r realm

Convert credentials for realm; by default the realm returned by krb5_default_local_realm(3) is used.

-nofork

specifies that krb524d not fork on launch. Useful for debugging purposes.

-p portnum

specifies the default UDP port number which krb524d should listen on for Kerberos 524 requests. This value is used when no port is specified in the KDC profile and when no port is specified in the Kerberos configuration file. If no value is available, then the value in /etc/services for service "krb524" is used.
