Thanks for the reply. The part where I was having trouble was with the
kdc.conf file. I knew that the krb5.conf file's location can be given
by the KRB5_CONFIG environment variable. Shortly after posting this
question yesterday I found what I think is the answer in the
installation guide -- that the kdb.conf file's location can be given
by the KRB5_KDC_PROFILE variable.
