try a script that uses "here" documents. Something like
for condition . . .
do
#set up your vars
/usr/krb55/admin/kdb5_edit >/dev/null << xxxEOFxxx
#insert your commands to kdb5_edit (to add users, or host keys)
quit
xxxEOFxxx
done
I used to do things manually until one of our smart admins wrote a short
script to change the keys (host entries) for servers. Of course be sure
to explicitly specify each path. Makes life easy.
