Can someone tell me what 'modent' does in krb5_edit? I can't find anything
in the documentation that tells what it does other then modify an entry.
What part of the entry is modified? What are its arguements other than the
principal? I also noticed that a show command has all kids of good information
in it like last time the password was changed, expiration date, etc. But very
little of it seems to be set. Is 'modent' supposed to be used to change
these? How is it used? I'm particularily interested in setting the expiration 
date to enforce password changing. Why is the expiration date not modified when 
the password is changed? How do I turn that on and how do I set the number of 
days? This inquiring mind wants to know, thanks.
