6 kadmin - Kerberos V5 database administration program

9 kadmin [-O|-N] [-r realm] [-p principal] [-q query] [[-c
10 cache_name]|[-k [-t keytab]]|-n] [-w password] [-s admin_server[:port]]
11 [command args...]
12
13 kadmin.local [-r realm] [-p principal] [-q query] [-d dbname] [-e
14 enc:salt ...] [-m] [-x db_args] [command args...]
15
17 kadmin and kadmin.local are command-line interfaces to the Kerberos V5
18 administration system. They provide nearly identical functionalities;
19 the difference is that kadmin.local directly accesses the KDC database,
20 while kadmin performs operations using kadmind. Except as explicitly
21 noted otherwise, this man page will use "kadmin" to refer to both ver‐
22 sions. kadmin provides for the maintenance of Kerberos principals,
23 password policies, and service key tables (keytabs).
24
25 The remote kadmin client uses Kerberos to authenticate to kadmind using
26 the service principal kadmin/admin or kadmin/ADMINHOST (where ADMINHOST
27 is the fully-qualified hostname of the admin server). If the creden‐
28 tials cache contains a ticket for one of these principals, and the -c
29 credentials_cache option is specified, that ticket is used to authenti‐
30 cate to kadmind. Otherwise, the -p and -k options are used to specify
31 the client Kerberos principal name used to authenticate. Once kadmin
32 has determined the principal name, it requests a service ticket from
33 the KDC, and uses that service ticket to authenticate to kadmind.
34
35 Since kadmin.local directly accesses the KDC database, it usually must
36 be run directly on the primary KDC with sufficient permissions to read
37 the KDC database. If the KDC database uses the LDAP database module,
38 kadmin.local can be run on any host which can access the LDAP server.
39
41 -r realm
42 Use realm as the default database realm.
43
44 -p principal
45 Use principal to authenticate. Otherwise, kadmin will append
46 /admin to the primary principal name of the default ccache, the
47 value of the USER environment variable, or the username as ob‐
48 tained with getpwuid, in order of preference.
49
50 -k Use a keytab to decrypt the KDC response instead of prompting
51 for a password. In this case, the default principal will be
52 host/hostname. If there is no keytab specified with the -t op‐
53 tion, then the default keytab will be used.
54
55 -t keytab
56 Use keytab to decrypt the KDC response. This can only be used
57 with the -k option.
58
59 -n Requests anonymous processing. Two types of anonymous princi‐
60 pals are supported. For fully anonymous Kerberos, configure
61 PKINIT on the KDC and configure pkinit_anchors in the client's
62 krb5.conf. Then use the -n option with a principal of the form
63 @REALM (an empty principal name followed by the at-sign and a
64 realm name). If permitted by the KDC, an anonymous ticket will
65 be returned. A second form of anonymous tickets is supported;
66 these realm-exposed tickets hide the identity of the client but
67 not the client's realm. For this mode, use kinit -n with a nor‐
68 mal principal name. If supported by the KDC, the principal (but
69 not realm) will be replaced by the anonymous principal. As of
70 release 1.8, the MIT Kerberos KDC only supports fully anonymous
71 operation.
72
73 -c credentials_cache
74 Use credentials_cache as the credentials cache. The cache
75 should contain a service ticket for the kadmin/admin or kad‐
76 min/ADMINHOST (where ADMINHOST is the fully-qualified hostname
77 of the admin server) service; it can be acquired with the kinit
78 program. If this option is not specified, kadmin requests a new
79 service ticket from the KDC, and stores it in its own temporary
80 ccache.
81
82 -w password
83 Use password instead of prompting for one. Use this option with
84 care, as it may expose the password to other users on the system
85 via the process list.
86
87 -q query
88 Perform the specified query and then exit.
89
90 -d dbname
91 Specifies the name of the KDC database. This option does not
92 apply to the LDAP database module.
93
94 -s admin_server[:port]
95 Specifies the admin server which kadmin should contact.
96
97 -m If using kadmin.local, prompt for the database master password
98 instead of reading it from a stash file.
99
100 -e "enc:salt ..."
101 Sets the keysalt list to be used for any new keys created. See
102 Keysalt lists in kdc.conf for a list of possible values.
103
104 -O Force use of old AUTH_GSSAPI authentication flavor.
105
106 -N Prevent fallback to AUTH_GSSAPI authentication flavor.
107
108 -x db_args
109 Specifies the database specific arguments. See the next section
110 for supported options.
111
112 Starting with release 1.14, if any command-line arguments remain after
113 the options, they will be treated as a single query to be executed.
114 This mode of operation is intended for scripts and behaves differently
115 from the interactive mode in several respects:
116
117 • Query arguments are split by the shell, not by kadmin.
118
119 • Informational and warning messages are suppressed. Error messages
120 and query output (e.g. for get_principal) will still be displayed.
121
122 • Confirmation prompts are disabled (as if -force was given). Password
123 prompts will still be issued as required.
124
125 • The exit status will be non-zero if the query fails.
126
127 The -q option does not carry these behavior differences; the query will
128 be processed as if it was entered interactively. The -q option cannot
129 be used in combination with a query in the remaining arguments.
130
132 Database options can be used to override database-specific defaults.
133 Supported options for the DB2 module are:
134
135 -x dbname=*filename*
136 Specifies the base filename of the DB2 database.
137
138 -x lockiter
139 Make iteration operations hold the lock for the duration of
140 the entire operation, rather than temporarily releasing the
141 lock while handling each principal. This is the default be‐
142 havior, but this option exists to allow command line override
143 of a [dbmodules] setting. First introduced in release 1.13.
144
145 -x unlockiter
146 Make iteration operations unlock the database for each prin‐
147 cipal, instead of holding the lock for the duration of the
148 entire operation. First introduced in release 1.13.
149
150 Supported options for the LDAP module are:
151
152 -x host=ldapuri
153 Specifies the LDAP server to connect to by a LDAP URI.
154
155 -x binddn=bind_dn
156 Specifies the DN used to bind to the LDAP server.
157
158 -x bindpwd=password
159 Specifies the password or SASL secret used to bind to the
160 LDAP server. Using this option may expose the password to
161 other users on the system via the process list; to avoid
162 this, instead stash the password using the stashsrvpw command
163 of kdb5_ldap_util.
164
165 -x sasl_mech=mechanism
166 Specifies the SASL mechanism used to bind to the LDAP server.
167 The bind DN is ignored if a SASL mechanism is used. New in
168 release 1.13.
169
170 -x sasl_authcid=name
171 Specifies the authentication name used when binding to the
172 LDAP server with a SASL mechanism, if the mechanism requires
173 one. New in release 1.13.
174
175 -x sasl_authzid=name
176 Specifies the authorization name used when binding to the
177 LDAP server with a SASL mechanism. New in release 1.13.
178
179 -x sasl_realm=realm
180 Specifies the realm used when binding to the LDAP server with
181 a SASL mechanism, if the mechanism uses one. New in release
182 1.13.
183
184 -x debug=level
185 sets the OpenLDAP client library debug level. level is an
186 integer to be interpreted by the library. Debugging messages
187 are printed to standard error. New in release 1.12.
188
190 When using the remote client, available commands may be restricted ac‐
191 cording to the privileges specified in the kadm5.acl file on the admin
192 server.
193
194 add_principal
195 add_principal [options] newprinc
196
197 Creates the principal newprinc, prompting twice for a password. If no
198 password policy is specified with the -policy option, and the policy
199 named default is assigned to the principal if it exists. However, cre‐
200 ating a policy named default will not automatically assign this policy
201 to previously existing principals. This policy assignment can be sup‐
202 pressed with the -clearpolicy option.
203
204 This command requires the add privilege.
205
206 Aliases: addprinc, ank

229 the policy default is used if it exists (unless -clearpolicy is
230 specified).
231
232 -clearpolicy
233 Prevents any policy from being assigned when -policy is not
234 specified.
235
236 {-|+}allow_postdated
237 -allow_postdated prohibits this principal from obtaining post‐
238 dated tickets. +allow_postdated clears this flag.
239
240 {-|+}allow_forwardable
241 -allow_forwardable prohibits this principal from obtaining for‐
242 wardable tickets. +allow_forwardable clears this flag.
243
244 {-|+}allow_renewable
245 -allow_renewable prohibits this principal from obtaining renew‐
246 able tickets. +allow_renewable clears this flag.
247
248 {-|+}allow_proxiable

250 able tickets. +allow_proxiable clears this flag.
251
252 {-|+}allow_dup_skey
253 -allow_dup_skey disables user-to-user authentication for this
254 principal by prohibiting others from obtaining a service ticket
255 encrypted in this principal's TGT session key. +allow_dup_skey
256 clears this flag.
257
258 {-|+}requires_preauth
259 +requires_preauth requires this principal to preauthenticate be‐
260 fore being allowed to kinit. -requires_preauth clears this
261 flag. When +requires_preauth is set on a service principal, the
262 KDC will only issue service tickets for that service principal
263 if the client's initial authentication was performed using
264 preauthentication.
265
266 {-|+}requires_hwauth
267 +requires_hwauth requires this principal to preauthenticate us‐
268 ing a hardware device before being allowed to kinit. -re‐
269 quires_hwauth clears this flag. When +requires_hwauth is set on
270 a service principal, the KDC will only issue service tickets for
271 that service principal if the client's initial authentication
272 was performed using a hardware device to preauthenticate.
273
274 {-|+}ok_as_delegate
275 +ok_as_delegate sets the okay as delegate flag on tickets issued
276 with this principal as the service. Clients may use this flag
277 as a hint that credentials should be delegated when authenticat‐
278 ing to the service. -ok_as_delegate clears this flag.
279
280 {-|+}allow_svr
281 -allow_svr prohibits the issuance of service tickets for this
282 principal. In release 1.17 and later, user-to-user service
283 tickets are still allowed unless the -allow_dup_skey flag is
284 also set. +allow_svr clears this flag.
285
286 {-|+}allow_tgs_req
287 -allow_tgs_req specifies that a Ticket-Granting Service (TGS)
288 request for a service ticket for this principal is not permit‐
289 ted. +allow_tgs_req clears this flag.
290
291 {-|+}allow_tix
292 -allow_tix forbids the issuance of any tickets for this princi‐
293 pal. +allow_tix clears this flag.
294
295 {-|+}needchange
296 +needchange forces a password change on the next initial authen‐
297 tication to this principal. -needchange clears this flag.
298
299 {-|+}password_changing_service
300 +password_changing_service marks this principal as a password
301 change service principal.
302
303 {-|+}ok_to_auth_as_delegate
304 +ok_to_auth_as_delegate allows this principal to acquire for‐
305 wardable tickets to itself from arbitrary users, for use with
306 constrained delegation.
307
308 {-|+}no_auth_data_required
309 +no_auth_data_required prevents PAC or AD-SIGNEDPATH data from
310 being added to service tickets for the principal.
311
312 {-|+}lockdown_keys
313 +lockdown_keys prevents keys for this principal from leaving the
314 KDC via kadmind. The chpass and extract operations are denied
315 for a principal with this attribute. The chrand operation is
316 allowed, but will not return the new keys. The delete and re‐
317 name operations are also denied if this attribute is set, in or‐
318 der to prevent a malicious administrator from replacing princi‐
319 pals like krbtgt/* or kadmin/* with new principals without the
320 attribute. This attribute can be set via the network protocol,
321 but can only be removed using kadmin.local.
322
323 -randkey
324 Sets the key of the principal to a random value.
325
326 -nokey Causes the principal to be created with no key. New in release
327 1.12.
328
329 -pw password
330 Sets the password of the principal to the specified string and
331 does not prompt for a password. Note: using this option in a
332 shell script may expose the password to other users on the sys‐
333 tem via the process list.
334
335 -e enc:salt,...
336 Uses the specified keysalt list for setting the keys of the
337 principal. See Keysalt lists in kdc.conf for a list of possible
338 values.
339
340 -x db_princ_args
341 Indicates database-specific options. The options for the LDAP
342 database module are:
343
344 -x dn=dn
345 Specifies the LDAP object that will contain the Kerberos
346 principal being created.
347
348 -x linkdn=dn
349 Specifies the LDAP object to which the newly created Ker‐
350 beros principal object will point.
351
352 -x containerdn=container_dn
353 Specifies the container object under which the Kerberos
354 principal is to be created.
355
356 -x tktpolicy=policy
357 Associates a ticket policy to the Kerberos principal.
358
359 NOTE:
360
361 • The containerdn and linkdn options cannot be specified with
362 the dn option.
363
364 • If the dn or containerdn options are not specified while
365 adding the principal, the principals are created under the
366 principal container configured in the realm or the realm
367 container.
368
369 • dn and containerdn should be within the subtrees or princi‐
370 pal container configured in the realm.

614 is not supported with the LDAP KDC database module.
615
616 -maxfailure maxnumber
617 Sets the number of authentication failures before the principal
618 is locked. Authentication failures are only tracked for princi‐
619 pals which require preauthentication. The counter of failed at‐
620 tempts resets to 0 after a successful attempt to authenticate.
621 A maxnumber value of 0 (the default) disables lockout.
622
623 -failurecountinterval failuretime
624 (Time duration or getdate time string) Sets the allowable time
625 between authentication failures. If an authentication failure
626 happens after failuretime has elapsed since the previous fail‐
627 ure, the number of authentication failures is reset to 1. A
628 failuretime value of 0 (the default) means forever.
629
630 -lockoutduration lockouttime
631 (Time duration or getdate time string) Sets the duration for
632 which the principal is locked from authenticating if too many
633 authentication failures occur without the specified failure
634 count interval elapsing. A duration of 0 (the default) means
635 the principal remains locked out until it is administratively
636 unlocked with modprinc -unlock.
637
638 -allowedkeysalts
639 Specifies the key/salt tuples supported for long-term keys when
640 setting or changing a principal's password/keys. See Keysalt
641 lists in kdc.conf for a list of the accepted values, but note
642 that key/salt tuples must be separated with commas (',') only.
643 To clear the allowed key/salt policy use a value of '-'.
644
645 Example:
646
647 kadmin: add_policy -maxlife "2 days" -minlength 5 guests
648 kadmin:
649
650 modify_policy
651 modify_policy [options] policy
652
653 Modifies the password policy named policy. Options are as described
654 for add_policy.
655
656 This command requires the modify privilege.
657
658 Alias: modpol
659
660 delete_policy
661 delete_policy [-force] policy
662
663 Deletes the password policy named policy. Prompts for confirmation be‐
664 fore deletion. The command will fail if the policy is in use by any
665 principals.
666
667 This command requires the delete privilege.
668
669 Alias: delpol
670
671 Example:

676 kadmin:
677
678 get_policy
679 get_policy [ -terse ] policy
680
681 Displays the values of the password policy named policy. With the
682 -terse flag, outputs the fields as quoted strings separated by tabs.
683
684 This command requires the inquire privilege.
685
686 Alias: getpol
687
688 Examples:
689
690 kadmin: get_policy admin
691 Policy: admin
692 Maximum password life: 180 days 00:00:00
693 Minimum password life: 00:00:00
694 Minimum password length: 6
695 Minimum number of password character classes: 2
696 Number of old keys kept: 5
697 Reference count: 17

702
703 The "Reference count" is the number of principals using that policy.
704 With the LDAP KDC database module, the reference count field is not
705 meaningful.
706
707 list_policies
708 list_policies [expression]
709
710 Retrieves all or some policy names. expression is a shell-style glob
711 expression that can contain the wild-card characters ?, *, and []. All
712 policy names matching the expression are printed. If no expression is
713 provided, all existing policy names are printed.
714
715 This command requires the list privilege.

732 ktadd
733 ktadd [options] principal
734 ktadd [options] -glob princ-exp
735
736
737 Adds a principal, or all principals matching princ-exp, to a keytab
738 file. Each principal's keys are randomized in the process. The rules
739 for princ-exp are described in the list_principals command.
740
741 This command requires the inquire and changepw privileges. With the
742 -glob form, it also requires the list privilege.
743
744 The options are:
745
746 -k[eytab] keytab
747 Use keytab as the keytab file. Otherwise, the default keytab is
748 used.
749
750 -e enc:salt,...
751 Uses the specified keysalt list for setting the new keys of the
752 principal. See Keysalt lists in kdc.conf for a list of possible
753 values.
754
755 -q Display less verbose information.
756
757 -norandkey
758 Do not randomize the keys. The keys and their version numbers
759 stay unchanged. This option cannot be specified in combination
760 with the -e option.
761
762 An entry for each of the principal's unique encryption types is added,
763 ignoring multiple keys with the same encryption type but different salt
764 types.

776 ktremove
777 ktremove [options] principal [kvno | all | old]
778
779 Removes entries for the specified principal from a keytab. Requires no
780 permissions, since this does not require database access.
781
782 If the string "all" is specified, all entries for that principal are
783 removed; if the string "old" is specified, all entries for that princi‐
784 pal except those with the highest kvno are removed. Otherwise, the
785 value specified is parsed as an integer, and all entries whose kvno
786 match that integer are removed.
787
788 The options are:
789
790 -k[eytab] keytab
