ksetup addkpasswd

Adds a Kerberos password (kpasswd) server address for a realm.

Syntax

ksetup /addkpasswd <realmname> [<kpasswdname>]

Parameters

Parameter Description
<realmname> Specifies the uppercase DNS name, such as CORP.CONTOSO.COM, and is listed as the default realm or Realm= when ksetup is run.
<kpasswdname> Specifies the Kerberos password server. It's stated as a case-insensitive, fully-qualified domain name, such as mitkdc.contoso.com. If the KDC name is omitted, DNS might be used to locate KDCs.

Remarks

  • If the Kerberos realm that the workstation will be authenticating to supports the Kerberos change password protocol, you can configure a client computer running the Windows operating system to use a Kerberos password server.

  • You can add additional KDC names one at a time.

Examples

To configure the CORP.CONTOSO.COM realm to use the non-Windows KDC server, mitkdc.contoso.com, as the password server, type:

ksetup /addkpasswd CORP.CONTOSO.COM mitkdc.contoso.com

To verify the KDC name is set, type ksetup and then view the output, looking for the text, kpasswd =. If you don't see the text, it means the mapping hasn't been configured.
