I would add krb.conf and krb.realm info to the list of things
that need to be managed centrally. Does anyone have any ideas how to
do this? Any code to implement it? As it stands, you need to have
the same /etc/krb.conf file everywhere. Every new realm and every
new server needs to be reflected in each krb.conf file all over.
Having such local config files is way too cumbersome for our
organization. Version 5 uses the same machanism as Version 4 for
this. Also, the global-to-local name translation (aname) should also
be managed centrally.
