NAME
      ktutil - Kerberos keytab maintenance utility
 


SYNOPSIS
      /usr/bin/ktutil
 


DESCRIPTION
      The ktutil command is an interactive command-line  interface
      utility  for managing  the keylist in keytab files. You must
      read in a keytab's keylist  before you can manage it.  Also,
      the  user  running  the  ktutil command must have read/write
      permissions on the keytab. For example, if a keytab is owned
      by  root,  which it typically is, ktutil must be run as root
      to have the appropriate permissions.
 
 COMMANDS
      clear_list, clear
            Clears the current keylist.
 
      read_kt file, rkt file
            Reads a keytab into  the  current  keylist.  You  must
            specify a keytab file to read.
 
      write_kt file, wkt file
            Writes the current keylist to a keytab file. You  must
            specify  a  keytab  file  to write. If the keytab file
            already exists, the current keylist is appended to the
            existing keytab file.
 
      delete_entry number, delent number
            Deletes an entry from the current keylist. Specify the
            entry by the keylist slot number.
 
      list, l
            Lists the current keylist.
 
      list_request, lr
            Lists available requests (commands).
 
      quit, exit, q
            Exits utility.
 
 EXAMPLES
      Example 1: Deleting a principal from a file
 
      The following example deletes the host/denver@ACME.com prin-
      cipal  from  the  /etc/krb5/krb5.keytab file. Notice that if
      you want to delete an entry from  an  existing  keytab,  you
      must  first write the keylist to a temporary keytab and then
      overwrite the existing keytab with the the temporary keytab.
      This is because the wkt command actually appends the current
      keylist to an existing  keytab,  so  you  can't  use  it  to
