krb.realms(SFF)

krb.realms -- host to Kerberos realm translation file

Format

host_name kerberos_realm_name

domain_name kerberos_realm_name

Description

krb.realms maps Domain Name Service (DNS) names to Kerberos realm names.

Each line of the translation file is in one of the following forms: 

   host_name kerberos_realm
   domain_name kerberos_realm
If an entry lists a domain_name, it must begin with a dot (for example, .sco.COM).

If a hostname exactly matches the host_name field in a line of the first form, the corresponding realm is the realm of the host.

If a hostname does not match any host_name in the file, but its domain exactly matches the domain_name field in a line of the second form, the corresponding realm is the realm of the host.

Examples

Map all machines in the domain .sco.COM into the realm kerberos.sco.com: 
   .sco.COM  kerberos.sco.com
