Hello,

has someone a Sysv-init or Openrc start script for the krb5kdc/kadmind 
daemons which prompts at the starting phase for manually input the K/M 
passphrase. Or as enhancement uses Opensc pkcs15 to input a pin, decrypt 
and provide the passphrase to the daemon.

I know the options -m and -n but my testing was not sucessfull with eg 
start-stop-daemon.

I didn't find anything in the www, therefore my request.

I dont use systemd - I use Devuan or Alpine Linux, hence SysV-init or 
openrc.

Nb: my krb5kdcs/kadminds with LDAP backend run for years with encrypted 
/var/lib partitions, but now I will only encrypt the long-time keys - 
Keep it Simple.


Thanks,
Stefan Hartmann - ib.hafenthal.de
