KRB.REALMS(5)             OpenBSD Programmer's Manual            KRB.REALMS(5)

NAME
     krb.realms - host to Kerberos realm translation file

DESCRIPTION
     krb.realms provides a translation from a hostname to the Kerberos realm
     name for the services provided by that host.

     Each line of the translation file is in one of the following forms
     (domain_name should be of the form .XXX.YYY, e.g. .LCS.MIT.EDU):

           host_name kerberos_realm
           domain_name kerberos_realm

     If a hostname exactly matches the host_name field in a line of the first
     form, the corresponding kerberos_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 corre-
     sponding kerberos_realm is the realm of the host.

     If no translation entry applies, the host's realm is considered to be the
     hostname's domain portion converted to upper case.
