ksetup addkpasswd
Adds a Kerberos password (kpasswd) server address for a realm.
Syntax
ksetup /addkpasswd <realmname> [<kpasswdname>]
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
<realmname> |
Specifies the uppercase DNS name, such as CORP.CONTOSO.COM, and is listed as the default realm or Realm= when ksetup is run. |
<kpasswdname> |
Specifies the Kerberos password server. It's stated as a case-insensitive, fully-qualified domain name, such as mitkdc.contoso.com. If the KDC name is omitted, DNS might be used to locate KDCs. |
Remarks
If the Kerberos realm that the workstation will be authenticating to supports the Kerberos change password protocol, you can configure a client computer running the Windows operating system to use a Kerberos password server.
You can add additional KDC names one at a time.
Examples
To configure the CORP.CONTOSO.COM realm to use the non-Windows KDC server, mitkdc.contoso.com, as the password server, type:
ksetup /addkpasswd CORP.CONTOSO.COM mitkdc.contoso.com
To verify the KDC name is set, type ksetup and then view the output, looking for the text, kpasswd =. If you don't see the text, it means the mapping hasn't been configured.
