DESCRIPTION
hprop 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 database 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|krb4-db|kaserver | | | Specifies the type of the source database. Alternatives include: | |
| heimdal | a Heimdal database | | mit-dump | a MIT Kerberos 5 dump file | | krb4-db | a Kerberos 4 database | | krb4-dump | | | a Kerberos 4 dump file | | kaserver | an AFS kaserver database | |
| -k keytab, --keytab= keytab | | | The keytab to use for fetching the key to be used for authenticating to the propagation daemon(s). The key kadmin/hprop 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. | |
The following options are only valid if hprop is compiled with support for Kerberos 4 (kaserver). | -r string, --v4-realm= string | | | v4 realm to use. | | -c cell, --cell= cell | | | The AFS cell name, used if reading a kaserver database. | | -S , --kaspecials | | | Also dump the principals marked as special in the kaserver database. | | -4 , --v4-db | | | Deprecated, identical to '--source=krb4-db'. | | -K , --ka-db | | | Deprecated, identical to '--source=kaserver'. | |
EXAMPLES
The following will propagate a database to another machine (which should run hpropd(8):)
$ hprop slave-1 slave-2
Copy a Kerberos 4 database to a Kerberos 5 slave:
$ hprop --source=krb4-db -E krb5-slave
Convert a Kerberos 4 dump-file for use with a Heimdal KDC:
$ hprop -n --source=krb4-dump -d /var/kerberos/principal.dump --master-key=/.k | hpropd -n
