HPROP(8) BSD System Manager's Manual HPROP(8)NAMEhprop — propagate the KDC database
SYNOPSIShprop [-m file | --master-key=file] [-d file | --database=file]
[--source=heimdal|mit-dump] [-r string | --v4-realm=string] [-c
cell | --cell=cell] [-k keytab | --keytab=keytab] [-R string |
--v5-realm=string] [-D | --decrypt] [-E | --encrypt]
[-n | --stdout] [-v | --verbose] [--version] [-h | --help]
[host[:port]] ...
DESCRIPTIONhprop takes a principal database in a specified format and converts it
into a stream of Heimdal database records. This stream can either be
written to standard out, or (more commonly) be propagated to a hpropd(8)
server running on a different machine.
If propagating, it connects to all hosts specified on the command by
opening a TCP connection to port 754 (service hprop) and sends the data‐
base in encrypted form.
Supported options:
-m file, --master-key=file
Where to find the master key to encrypt or decrypt keys with.
-d file, --database=file
The database to be propagated.
--source=heimdal|mit-dump|krb4-dump|kaserver
Specifies the type of the source database. Alternatives include:
heimdal a Heimdal database
mit-dump a MIT Kerberos 5 dump file
+.It Fl k Ar keytab , Fl Fl keytab= Ns Ar keytab The keytab to
use for fetching the key to be used for authenticating to the
propagation daemon(s). The key hprop/hostname is used from this
keytab. The default is to fetch the key from the KDC database.
-R string, --v5-realm=string
Local realm override.
-D, --decrypt
The encryption keys in the database can either be in clear, or
encrypted with a master key. This option transmits the database
with unencrypted keys.
-E, --encrypt
This option transmits the database with encrypted keys.
-n, --stdout
Dump the database on stdout, in a format that can be fed to
hpropd.
EXAMPLES
The following will propagate a database to another machine (which should
run hpropd(8)):
$ hprop slave-1 slave-2
