Remote Administrator – kadmin_ui
The kadmin_ui utility is the GUI-based Kerberos remote administrative
utility that runs on the secondary security servers and clients.
Principals with administrative privileges use the remote administrator
to maintain the database on the primary security server from their local
workstation.
You can use kadmin_ui to accomplish the following tasks:
• Add, modify, specify, or delete principals.
• Search for a principal.
• List administration permissions.
• Extract service principal information to the service key table.
• Add, modify, specify, or delete realms.
• Edit the Default Group.
• Manage admin_acl_file.
