Chapter 6174
The general syntax for deleting a specified principal:
command: del
For example, to delete the principal “admin”, you would do the following:
command: del
Name of Principal to delete: admin
Principal removed
You are not alerted with a confirmation message on deletion of a
principal.
Extract a Principal
The ext command securely extracts a principal’s key into a local
service key table file. By default, the host/fqdn@REALM principal is
extracted into the v5srvtab file, where fqdn is the fully qualified domain
name of the host system.
If the principal does not exist in the principal database, it is added with
the name you have specified.If the service key table file does not exist, it
is created with the name you have specified.
If the principal exits, kadmin resets the key version to 1 by overwriting
the previous key and extracting the key that is created using a new
password and no salt key. To extract the key without any modifications,
use the -n option.
The general syntax for extracting a principal and a key to a local service
key table file:
command: ext
For example, to extract the principal “admin” to a local service key table
file, SrvTab, you would do the following:
command: ext
Name of Principal (host/fqdn@REALM): admin
Service Key Table File Name (/opt/krb5/v5srvtab):/opt/SrvTab
Principal modified
Key extracted
The optional parameters are:
[-n] Extracts the key for an existing principal without
changing the key or the salt type.
