+\section{Introduction}
+
+This document describes the Admin API that can be used to maintain
+principals and policies. It describes the data structures used for
+each function and the interpretation of each data type field, the
+semantics of each API function, and the possible return codes.
+
+The Admin API is intended to be used by remote clients using an RPC
+interface. It is implemented by the admin server running on the
+Kerberos master server. It is also possible for a program running on
+the Kerberos master server to use the Admin API directly, without
+going through the admin server.
+
+\section{Versions of the API}
+
+The versions of this API and a brief description of the changes for
+each are:
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[KADM5_API_VERSION_1] The initial version of this API, written by
+OpenVision Technologies and donated to MIT for including in the public
+release. Originally called OVSEC_KADM_API_VERSION_1. Most everything
+has been renamed in one way or another, including functions, header
+files, and data structures. Where possible, the old OVSEC_KADM names
+have been left behind for compatibility with version 1, and
+KADM5_API_VERSION_1 is compatible with OVSEC_KADM_API_VERSION_1 at
+compile-, link-, and run-time.
+
+The OVSEC_KADM name compatibility will not be extended to new
+functionality in future versions because no existing OVSEC_KADM
+clients will use that functionality; new clients should be written to
+the KADM5 API.
+
+\item[KADM5_API_VERSION_2] This version contains the initial changes
+necessary to make the OpenVision administration system work with the
+mid-1996 MIT version of Kerberos 5. Changes include
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item The kadm5_init functions now take a structure of parameters
+instead of just a realm name, allowing the calling program to specify
+non-default values for various configuration options. See section
+\ref{sec:configparams} for details.
+
+\item The KADM5 API has been extended to support new features of the
+Kerberos database, including multiple encryption and salt types per
+principal. See section \ref{sec:keys} for details.
+
+\item kadm5_get_principal now allows a principal's keys to be
+retrieved {\it by local clients only}. This is necessary in order for
+the kadm5 API to provide the primary Kerberos database interface.
+
+\item The KADM5 authorization system has been completely changed.
+
+\item The functions kadm5_flush, kadm5_get_principals, and
+kadm5_get_policies have been added.
+
+\item The KADM5 API now obeys a caller-allocates rather than
+callee-allocates system. kadm5_get_principal and kadm5_get_policy are
+affected.
+\end{enumerate}
+\end{description}
+
+\section{Policies and Password Quality}
+
+The Admin API Password Quality mechanism provides the following
+controls. Note that two strings are defined to be ``significantly
+different'' if they differ by at least one character. The compare is not
+case sensitive.
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item A minimum length can be required; a password with
+fewer than the specified number of characters will not be accepted.
+
+\item A minimum number of character classes can be required; a
+password that does not contain at least one character from at least
+the specified number of character classes will not be accepted. The
+character classes are defined by islower(), isupper(), isdigit(),
+ispunct(), and other.
+
+\item Passwords can be required to be different from
+previous passwords; a password that generates the same encryption key
+as any of the principal's specified previous number of passwords will
+not be accepted. This comparison is performed on the encryption keys
+generated from the passwords, not on the passwords themselves.
+
+\item A single ``forbidden password'' dictionary can be specified for all
+users; a password that is not significantly different from every word
+in the dictionary will not be accepted.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\section{Data Structures}
+
+This section describes the data structures used by the Admin API.
+They are defined in $<$kadm5/admin.h$>$.
+
+\subsection{Principals, kadm5_principal_ent_t}
+\label{sec:principal-structure}
+
+A Kerberos principal entry is represented by a kadm5_principal_ent_t.
+It contains a subset of the information stored in the master Kerberos
+database as well as the additional information maintained by the admin
+system. In the current version, the only additional information is
+the principal's policy and the aux_attributes flags.
+
+The principal may or may not have a policy enforced on it. If the
+POLICY bit (see section \ref{sec:masks}) is set in aux_attributes, the
+policy field names the principal's policy. If the POLICY bit is not
+set in aux_attributes, no policy is enforced on the principal and the
+value of the policy field is undefined.
+

+\label{fig:princ-t}
+\end{figure}
+
+The fields of an kadm5_principal_ent_t are interpreted as
+follows.
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[principal] The name of the principal; must conform to Kerberos
+naming specifications.
+
+\item[princ_expire_time] The expire time of the principal as a Kerberos
+timestamp. No Kerberos tickets will be issued for a principal after
+its expire time.
+
+\item[last_pwd_change] The time this principal's password was last
+changed, as a Kerberos timestamp.
+
+\item[pw_expiration] The expire time of the user's current password, as a
+Kerberos timestamp. No application service tickets will be issued for the
+principal once the password expire time has passed. Note that the user can
+only obtain tickets for services that have the PW_CHANGE_SERVICE bit set in
+the attributes field.
+
+\item[max_life] The maximum lifetime of any Kerberos ticket issued to
+this principal.
+
+\item[attributes] A bitfield of attributes for use by the KDC. The
+symbols and constant values are defined below; their interpretation
+appears in the libkdb functional specification.
+
+\begin{tabular}{clr}
+{\bf Name} & {\bf Value} \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_POSTDATED & 0x00000001 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_FORWARDABLE & 0x00000002 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_TGT_BASED & 0x00000004 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_RENEWABLE & 0x00000008 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_PROXIABLE & 0x00000010 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_DUP_SKEY & 0x00000020 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_ALL_TIX & 0x00000040 \\
+KRB5_KDB_REQUIRES_PRE_AUTH & 0x00000080 \\
+KRB5_KDB_REQUIRES_HW_AUTH & 0x00000100 \\
+KRB5_KDB_REQUIRES_PWCHANGE & 0x00000200 \\
+KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_SVR & 0x00001000 \\
+KRB5_KDB_PWCHANGE_SERVICE & 0x00002000 \\
+KRB5_KDB_SUPPORT_DESMD5 & 0x00004000 \\
+KRB5_KDB_NEW_PRINC & 0x00008000
+\end{tabular}
+
+\item[mod_name] The name of the Kerberos principal that most recently
+modified this principal.
+
+\item[mod_date] The time this principal was last modified, as a Kerberos
+timestamp.
+
+\item[kvno] The version of the principal's current key.
+
+\item[mkvno] The version of the Kerberos Master Key in effect when
+this principal's key was last changed. In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, this
+field is always zero.
+
+\item[policy] If the POLICY bit is set in aux_attributes, the name
+of the policy controlling this principal.
+
+\item[aux_attributes] A bitfield of flags for use by the
+administration system. Currently, the only valid flag is POLICY, and
+it indicates whether or not the principal has a policy enforced on it.
+
+\item[max_renewable_life] The maximum renewable lifetime of any
+Kerberos ticket issued to or for this principal. This field only
+exists in KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+\item[last_success] The KDC time of the last successful AS_REQ. This
+is only updated if KRBCONF_KDC_MODIFIES_KDB is defined during
+compilation of the KDC. This field only exists in
+KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+\item[last_failed] The KDC time of the last failed AS_REQ. This is
+only updated if KRBCONF_KDC_MODIFIES_KDB is defined during compilation
+of the KDC. This field only exists in KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+\item[fail_auth_count] The number of consecutive failed AS_REQs. When
+this number reaches KRB5_MAX_FAIL_COUNT, the KRB5_KDC_DISALLOW_ALL_TIX
+is set on the principal. This is only updated if
+KRBCONF_KDC_MODIFIES_KDB is defined during compilation. This field
+only exists in KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+\item[n_tl_data] The number of elements in the \v{tl_data} linked
+list. This field only exists in KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+\item[n_key_data] The number of elements in the \v{key_data}
+array. This field only exists in KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+\item[tl_data] A linked list of tagged data. This list is a mechanism
+by which programs can store extended information in a principal entry,
+without having to modify the database API. Each element is of type
+krb5_tl_data:
+\begin{verbatim}
+typedef struct _krb5_tl_data {
+ struct _krb5_tl_data* tl_data_next;
+ krb5_int16 tl_data_type;
+ krb5_int16 tl_data_length;
+ krb5_octet * tl_data_contents;
+} krb5_tl_data;
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+The KADM5 API only allows elements whose tl_data_type is greater than
+or equal to 256. Values less than 256 are reserved for internal use
+by the KADM5 or kdb system. They are filtered out of the list
+returned by kadm5_get_principal, and generate an error if given to
+kadm5_modify_principal.
+
+The libkdb library defines the tagged data types
+KRB5_TL_LAST_PWD_CHANGE, KRB5_TL_MOD_PRINC, and KRB5_TL_KADM_DATA, all
+with values less than 256, which store the last password modification
+time, time and modifier of last principal modification, and
+administration system data. All of these entries are expected by the
+administration system and parsed out into fields of the
+kadm5_principal_ent_rec structure; as described above, they are not
+included in the tl_data list.
+
+Tagged data elements with types greater than 256 are handled without
+interpretation by KADM5. Note that an application that calls
+kadm5_modify_principal with the KADM5_TL_DATA mask bit set is
+responsible for providing the {\it complete} tl_data list, which it
+necessarily must obtain from kadm5_get_principal. It is {\it never}
+possible for an application to construct a complete tl_data list from
+scratch.
+
+\item[key_data] An array of the principal's keys. The keys contained
+in this array are encrypted in the Kerberos master key. See section
+\ref{sec:keys} for a discussion of the krb5_key_data structure.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Policies, kadm5_policy_ent_t}
+\label{sec:policy-fields}
+
+If the POLICY bit is set in aux_attributes, the \v{policy} name field
+in the kadm5_principal_ent_t structure refers to a password policy
+entry defined in a \v{kadm5_policy_ent_t}.
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+typedef struct _kadm5_policy_ent_t {
+ char *policy;
+
+ u_int32 pw_min_life;
+ u_int32 pw_max_life;
+ u_int32 pw_min_length;
+ u_int32 pw_min_classes;
+ u_int32 pw_history_num;
+ u_int32 policy_refcnt;
+} kadm5_policy_ent_rec, *kadm5_policy_ent_t;
+\end{verbatim}
+
+The fields of an kadm5_policy_ent_t are interpreted as follows.
+Note that a policy's values only apply to a principal using that
+policy.
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[policy] The name of this policy, as a NULL-terminated string.
+The ASCII characters between 32 (space) and 126 (tilde), inclusive,
+are legal.
+
+\item[pw_min_life] The minimum password lifetime, in seconds.
+A principal cannot change its password before pw_min_life seconds have
+passed since last_pwd_change.
+
+\item[pw_max_life] The default duration, in seconds, used to compute
+pw_expiration when a principal's password is changed.
+
+\item[pw_min_length] The minimum password length, in characters. A
+principal cannot set its password to anything with fewer than this
+number of characters. This value must be greater than zero.
+
+\item[pw_min_classes] The minimum number of character classes in the
+password. This value can only be 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. A principal cannot
+set its password to anything with fewer than this number of character
+classes in it.
+
+\item[pw_history_num] The number of past passwords that are
+stored for the principal; the minimum value is 1 and the maximum value
+is 10. A principal cannot set its password to any of its previous
+pw_history_num passwords. The first ``previous'' password is the
+current password; thus, a principal with a policy can never reset its
+password to its current value.
+
+\item[policy_refcnt] The number of principals currently using this policy.
+A policy cannot be deleted unless this number is zero.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Configuration parameters}
+\label{sec:configparams}
+
+The KADM5 API acquires configuration information from the Kerberos
+configuration file (\$KRB5_CONFIG or DEFAULT_PROFILE_PATH) and from
+the KDC configuration file (\$KRB5_KDC_CONFIG or DEFAULT_KDC_PROFILE).
+In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, some of the configuration parameters used by
+the KADM5 API can be controlled by the caller by providing a
+kadm5_config_params structure to kadm5_init:
+%
+\begin{verbatim}
+typedef struct _kadm5_config_params {
+ u_int32 mask;
+
+ /* Client and server fields */
+ char *realm;
+ char *profile;
+ int kadmind_port;
+
+ /* client fields */
+ char *admin_server;
+
+ /* server fields */
+ char *dbname;
+ char *admin_dbname;
+ char *admin_lockfile;
+ char *acl_file;
+ char *dict_file;
+ char *admin_keytab;
+
+ /* server library (database) fields */
+ int mkey_from_kbd;
+ char *stash_file;
+ char *mkey_name;
+ krb5_enctype enctype;
+ krb5_deltat max_life;
+ krb5_deltat max_rlife;
+ krb5_timestamp expiration;
+ krb5_flags flags;
+ krb5_key_salt_tuple *keysalts;
+ krb5_int32 num_keysalts;
+} kadm5_config_params;
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+The following list describes each of the fields of the structure,
+along with the profile relation it overrides, its mask value, its
+default value, and whether it is valid on the client, server, or both,
+or neither.
+\begin{description}
+\item[mask] No variable. No mask value. A bitfield specifying which
+fields of the structure contain valid information. A caller sets this
+mask before calling kadm5_init_*, indicating which parameters are
+specified. The mask values are defined in $<$kadm5/admin.h$>$ and are
+all prefixed with KADM5_CONFIG_; the prefix is not included in the
+descriptions below.
+
+\item[realm] No variable. REALM. Client and server. The realm to
+which these parameters apply, and the realm for which additional
+parameters are to be acquired, if any. If this field is not specified
+in the mask, the default local realm is used.
+
+\item[profile] Variable: profile (server only). PROFILE. Client and
+server. The Kerberos profile to use. On the client, the default is
+the value of the KRB5_CONFIG environment variable, or
+DEFAULT_PROFILE_PATH if that is not set. On the server, the value of
+the ``profile'' variable of the KDC configuration file will be used as
+the first default if it exists; otherwise, the default is the value of
+the KRB5_KDC_PROFILE environment variable or DEFAULT_KDC_PROFILE.
+
+\item[kadmind_port] Variable: kadmind_port. KADMIND_PORT. Client and
+server. The port number the kadmind server listens on. The client
+uses this field to determine where to connect, and the server to
+determine where to listen. The default is 749, which has been
+assigned by IANA.
+
+\item[admin_server] Variable: admin_server. ADMIN_SERVER. Client.
+The host name of the admin server to which to connect. There is no
+default. If the value of this field contains a colon (:), the text
+following the colon is treated as an integer and assigned to the
+kadmind_port field, overriding any value of the kadmind_port variable.
+
+\item[dbname] Variable: dbname. DBNAME. Server. The Kerberos
+database name to use; the Kerberos database stores principal
+information. The default is DEFAULT_KDB_FILE.
+
+\item[admin_dbname] Variable: admin_database_name. ADBNAME.
+Neither. If the dbname field is set, this field is set to the value
+of dbname followed by ``.kadm5''.
+
+\item[admin_lockfile] Variable: admin_database_lockfile.
+ADB_LOCKFILE. Neither. If the admin_dbname field is set, this field
+is set to the value of admin_dbname followed by ``.lock''.
+
+\item[acl_file] Variable: acl_file. ACL_FILE. Server. The admin
+server's ACL file. The default is DEFAULT_KADM5_ACL_FILE.
+
+\item[dict_file] Variable: admin_dict_file. DICT_FILE. Server. The
+admin server's dictionary file of passwords to disallow. No default.
+
+\item[admin_keytab] Variable: admin_keytab. ADMIN_KEYTAB. Server.
+The keytab file containing the kadmin/admin and kadmin/changepw
+entries for the server to use. The default is the value of the
+KRB5_KTNAME environment variable, if defined, else
+DEFAULT_KADM5_KEYTAB.
+
+\item[mkey_from_keyboard] No variable. MKEY_FROM_KEYBOARD. Server.
+If non-zero, prompt for the master password via the tty instead of
+using the stash file. If this mask bit is not set, or is set and the
+value is zero, the stash file is used.
+
+\item[stash_file] Variable: key_stash_file. STASH_FILE. Server. The
+file name containing the master key stash file. No default; libkdb
+will work with a NULL value.
+
+\item[mkey_name] Variable: master_key_name. MKEY_NAME. Server. The
+name of the master principal for the realm. No default; lbkdb will
+work with a NULL value.
+
+\item[enctype] Variable: master_key_type. ENCTYPE. Server. The
+encryption type of the master principal. The default is
+DEFAULT_KDC_ENCTYPE.
+
+\item[max_life] Variable: max_life. MAX_LIFE. Maximum lifetime for
+all tickets issued to the principal. The default is 28800, which is 8
+hours.
+
+\item[max_rlife, expiration, flags] Variables: max_renewable_life,
+default_principal_expiration, default_principal_flags. MAX_LIFE,
+MAX_RLIFE, EXPIRATION, FLAGS. Server. Default values for new
+principals. All default to 0.
+
+\item[keysalts, num_keysalts] Variable: supported_enctypes. ENCTYPES.
+Server. The list of supported encryption type/salt type tuples; both
+fields must be assigned if ENCTYPES is set. The default is a list
+containing one enctype, DES-CBC-CRC with normal salt.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Principal keys}
+\label{sec:keys}
+
+In KADM5_API_VERSION_1, all principals had a single key. The
+encryption method was always DES, and the salt type was determined
+outside the API (by command-line options to the administration
+server).
+
+In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, principals can have multiple keys, each with
+its own encryption type and salt. Each time a principal's key is
+changed with kadm5_create_principal, kadm5_chpass_principal or
+kadm5_randkey_principal, existing key entries are removed and a key
+entry for each encryption and salt type tuple specified in the
+configuration parameters is added. There is no provision for
+specifying encryption and salt type information on a per-principal
+basis; in a future version, this will probably be part of the admin
+policy. There is also presently no provision for keeping multiple key
+versions for a single principal active in the database.
+
+A single key is represented by a krb5_key_data:
+%
+\begin{verbatim}
+typedef struct _krb5_key_data {
+ krb5_int16 key_data_ver; /* Version */
+ krb5_int16 key_data_kvno; /* Key Version */
+ krb5_int16 key_data_type[2]; /* Array of types */
+ krb5_int16 key_data_length[2]; /* Array of lengths */
+ krb5_octet * key_data_contents[2]; /* Array of pointers */
+} krb5_key_data;
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+\begin{description}
+\item[key_data_ver] The verion number of the structure. Versions 1
+and 2 are currently defined. If key_data_ver is 1 then the key is
+either a random key (not requiring a salt) or the salt is the normal
+v5 salt which is the same as the realm and therefore doesn't need to
+be saved in the database.
+
+\item[key_data_kvno] The key version number of this key.
+
+\item[key_data_type] The first element is the enctype of this key. In
+a version 2 structure, the second element is the salttype of this key.
+The legal encryption types are defined in $<$krb5.h$>$. The legal
+salt types are defined in $<$k5-int.h$>$.
+
+\item[key_data_length] The first element is length this key. In a
+version 2 structure, the second element is length of the salt for this
+key.
+
+\item[key_data_contents] The first element is the content of this key.
+In a version 2 structure, the second element is the contents of the
+salt for this key.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Field masks}
+\label{sec:masks}
+
+The API functions for creating, retrieving, and modifying principals
+and policies allow for a relevant subset of the fields of the
+kadm5_principal_ent_t and kadm5_policy_ent_t to be specified or
+changed. The chosen fields are determined by a bitmask that is passed
+to the relevant function. Each API function has different rules for
+which mask values can be specified, and can specify whether a given
+mask value is mandatory, optional, or forbidden. Mandatory fields
+must be present and forbidden fields must not be present or an error
+is generated. When creating a principal or policy, optional fields
+have a default value if they are not specified. When modifying a
+principal or policy, optional fields are unchanged if they are not
+specified. When retrieving a principal, optional fields are simply
+not provided if they are not specified; not specifying undeeded fields
+for retrieval may improve efficiency. The values for forbidden fields
+are defined in the function semantics.
+
+The masks for principals are in table \ref{tab:princ-bits} and the
+masks for policies are in table \ref{tab:policy-bits}. They are
+defined in $<$kadm5/admin.h$>$. The KADM5_ prefix has been removed
+from the Name fields. In the Create and Modify fields, M means
+mandatory, F means forbidden, and O means optional. Create fields
+that are optional specify the default value. The notation ``K/M
+value'' means that the field inherits its value from the corresponding
+field in the Kerberos master principal, for KADM5_API_VERSION_1, and
+from the configuration parameters for KADM5_API_VERSION_2.
+
+All masks for principals are optional for retrevial, {\it except} that
+the KEY_DATA mask is illegal when specified by a remote client; for
+details, see the function semantics for kadm5_get_principal.
+
+Note that the POLICY and POLICY_CLR bits are special. When POLICY is
+set, the policy is assigned to the principal. When POLICY_CLR is
+specified, the policy is unassigned to the principal and as a result
+no policy controls the principal.
+
+For convenience, the mask KADM5_PRINCIPAL_NORMAL_MASK contains all of
+the principal masks {\it except} KADM5_KEY_DATA and KADM5_TL_DATA, and
+the mask KADM5_POLICY_NORMAL_MASK contains all of the policy masks.

+\section{Constants, Header Files, Libraries}
+
+$<$kadm5/admin.h$>$ includes a number of required header files,
+including RPC, Kerberos 5, com_err, and admin com_err
+defines. It contains prototypes for all kadm5 routines mentioned
+below, as well as all Admin API data structures, type definitions and
+defines mentioned in this document.
+
+Before \v{\#include}ing $<$kadm5/admin.h$>$, the programmer can
+specify the API version number that the program will use by
+\v{\#define}ing USE_KADM5_API_VERSION; for example, define that symbol
+to be 1 to use KADM5_API_VERSION_1. This will ensure that the correct
+functional protoypes and data structures are defined. If no version
+symbol is defined, the most recent version supported by the header
+files will be used.
+
+Some of the defines and their values contained in $<$kadm5/admin.h$>$
+include the following, whose KADM5_ prefixes have been removed.
+Symbols that do not exist in KADM5_API_VERSION_2 do not have a KADM5_
+prefix, but instead retain only with OVSEC_KADM_ prefix for
+compatibility.
+\begin{description}
+\item[admin service principal] ADMIN_SERVICE (``kadmin/admin'')
+\item[admin history key] HIST_PRINCIPAL (``kadmin/history'')
+\item[change password principal] CHANGEPW_SERVICE (``kadmin/changepw'')
+\item[server acl file path] ACLFILE (``/krb5/ovsec_adm.acl''). In
+KADM5_API_VERSION 2, this is controlled by configuration parameters.
+\item[dictionary] WORDFILE (``/krb5/kadmind.dict''). In
+KADM5_API_VERSION 2, this is controlled by configuration parameters.
+\end{description}
+
+KADM5 errors are described in $<$kadm5/kadm_err.h$>$, which
+is included by $<$kadm5/admin.h$>$.
+
+The locations of the admin policy and principal databases, as well as
+defines and type definitions for the databases, are defined in
+$<$kadm5/adb.h$>$. Some of the defines in that file are:
+\begin{description}
+\item[admin policy database] POLICY_DB (``/krb5/kadm5_policy.db''). In
+KADM5_API_VERSION 2, this is controlled by configuration parameters.
+\item[admin principal database] PRINCIPAL_DB
+(``/krb5/ovsec_principal.db''). In KADM5_API_VERSION 2, this is
+controlled by configuration parameters.
+\end{description}
+
+Client applications will link against libkadm5clnt.a and server
+programs against libkadm5srv.a. Client applications must also link
+against: libgssapi_krb5.a, libkrb5.a, libcrypto.a, libgssrpc.a,
+libcom_err.a, and libdyn.a. Server applications must also link
+against: libkdb5.a, libkrb5.a, libcrypto.a, libgssrpc.a, libcom_err.a,
+and libdyn.a.
+
+\section{Error Codes}
+
+The error codes that can be returned by admin functions are listed
+below. Error codes indicated with a ``*'' can be returned by every
+admin function and always have the same meaning; these codes are
+omitted from the list presented with each function.
+
+The admin system guarantees that a function that returns an error code
+has no other side effect.
+
+The Admin system will use \v{com_err} for error codes. Note that this
+means \v{com_err} codes may be returned from functions that the admin
+routines call (e.g. the kerberos library). Callers should not expect
+that only KADM5 errors will be returned. The Admin system error code
+table name will be ``ovk'', and the offsets will be the same as the
+order presented here. As mentioned above, the error table include file
+will be $<$kadm5/kadm_err.h$>$.
+
+Note that these error codes are also used as protocol error code
+constants and therefore must not change between product releases.
+Additional codes should be added at the end of the list, not in the
+middle. The integer value of KADM5_FAILURE is 43787520; the
+remaining values are assigned in sequentially increasing order.

+\section{Authentication and Authorization}
+\label{sec:auth}
+
+Two Kerberos principals exist for use in communicating with the Admin
+system: kadmin/admin and kadmin/changepw. Both principals
+have the KRB5_KDB_DISALLOW_TGT_BASED bit set in their attributes so
+that service tickets for them can only be acquired via a
+password-based (AS_REQ) request. Additionally, kadmin/changepw
+has the KRB5_KDB_PWCHANGE_SERVICE bit set so that a principal with an
+expired password can still obtain a service ticket for it.
+
+The Admin system accepts requests that are authenticated to either
+service principal, but the sets of operations that can be performed by
+a request authenticated to each service are different. In particular,
+only the functions chpass_principal, randkey_principal, get_principal,
+and get_policy can be performed by a request authenticated to the
+kadmin/changepw service, and they can only be performed when the
+target principal of the operation is the same as the authenticated
+client principal; the function semantics descriptions below give the
+precise details. This means that administrative operations can only
+be performed when authenticated to the kadmin/admin service. The
+reason for this distinction is that tickets for kadmin/changepw can be
+acquired with an expired password, and the KADM system does not want
+to allow an administrator with an expired password to perform
+administrative operations on arbitrary principals.
+
+Each Admin API operation authenticated to the kadmin/admin service
+requires a specific authorization to run. This version uses a simple
+named privilege system with the following names and meanings:
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[Get] Able to examine the attributes (NOT key data) of principals
+and policies.
+\item[Add] Able to add principals and policies.
+\item[Modify] Able to modify attributes of existing principals and
+policies; this does not include changing passwords.
+\item[Delete] Able to remove principals and policies.
+\item[List] Able to retrieve a list of principals and policies.
+\item[Changepw] Able to change the password of principals.
+\item[Setkey] Able to set principal keys directly.
+\end{description}
+
+Privileges are specified via an external configuration file on the
+Kerberos master server.
+
+Table \ref{tab:func-overview} summarizes the authorization
+requirements of each function. Additionally, each API function
+description identifies the privilege required to perform it. The
+Authorization checks only happen if you are using the RPC mechanism.
+If you are using the server-side API functions locally on the admin
+server, the only authorization check is if you can access the
+approporiate local files.
+
+\section{Functions}
+
+\subsection{Overview}
+
+The functions provided by the Admin API, and the authorization they
+require, are listed in the table \ref{tab:func-overview}. The
+``kadm5_'' prefix has been removed from each function name.
+
+The function semantics in the following sections omit details that are
+the same for every function.
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item The effects of every function are atomic.
+
+\item Every function performs an authorization check and returns
+the appropriate KADM5_AUTH_* error code if the caller does not
+have the required privilege. No other information or error code is
+ever returned to an unauthorized user.
+
+\item Every function checks its arguments for NULL pointers or other
+obviously invalid values, and returns EINVAL if any are detected.
+
+\item Any function that performs a policy check uses the policy named
+in the principal's policy field. If the POLICY bit is not set in the
+principal's aux_attributes field, however, the principal has no
+policy, so the policy check is not performed.
+
+\item Unless otherwise specified, all functions return KADM5_OK.

+ krb5_ui_4 api_version,

+\end{verbatim}
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: none
+
+NOTE: kadm5_init is an obsolete function provided for backwards
+compatibility. It is identical to kadm5_init_with_password.
+
+These three functions open a connection to the kadm5 library and
+initialize any neccessary state information. They behave differently
+when called from local and remote clients.
+
+In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, these functions take a kadm5_config_params
+structure instead of a realm name as an argument. The semantics are
+similar: if a NULL pointer is passed for the realm_params argument,
+the default realm and default parameters for that realm, as specified
+in the krb5 configuration file (e.g. /etc/krb5.conf) are used. If a
+realm_params structure is provided, the fields that are set override
+the default values. If a parameter is specified to the local or
+remote libraries that does not apply to that side, an error code
+(KADM5_BAD_CLIENT_PARAMS or KADM5_BAD_SERVER_PARAMS) is returned. See
+section \ref{sec:configparams} for a discussion of configuration
+parameters.
+
+For remote clients, the semantics are:
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item Initializes all the com_err error tables used by the Admin
+system.
+
+\item Acquires configuration parameters. In KADM5_API_VERSION_1, all
+the defaults specified in the configuration file are used, according
+to the realm. In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, the values in params_in are
+merged with the default values. If an illegal mask value is
+specified, KADM5_BAD_CLIENT_PARAMS is returned.
+
+\item Acquires a Kerberos ticket for the specified service.
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item The ticket's client is client_name, which can be any valid
+Kerberos principal. If client_name does not include a realm, the
+default realm of the local host is used
+\item The ticket's service is service_name@realm. service_name must
+be one of the constants KADM5_ADMIN_SERVICE or
+KADM5_CHANGEPW_SERVICE.
+\item If realm is NULL, client_name's realm is used.
+
+\item For init_with_password, an initial ticket is acquired and
+decoded with the password pass, which must be client_name's password.
+If pass is NULL or an empty string, the user is prompted (via the tty)
+for a password.
+
+\item For init_with_skey, an initial ticket is acquired and decoded
+with client_name's key obtained from the specified keytab. If keytab
+is NULL or an empty string the default keytab is used.
+
+\item For init_with_creds, ccache must be an open credential cache
+that already has a ticket for the specified client and server.
+Alternatively, if a site chooses to disable the DISALLOW_TGT_BASED
+flag on the admin and changepw principals, the ccache can contain a
+ticket-granting ticket for client_name.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\item Creates a GSS-API authenticated connection to the Admin server,
+using the just-acquired Kerberos ticket.
+
+\item Verifies that the struct_version and api_version specified by
+the caller are valid and known to the library.
+
+\item Sends the specified api_version to the server.
+
+\item Upon successful completion, fills in server_handle with a handle
+for this connection, to be used in all subsequent API calls.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+The caller should always specify KADM5_STRUCT_VERSION for the
+struct_version argument, a valid and supported API version constant
+for the api_version argument (currently, KADM5_API_VERSION_1 or
+KADM5_API_VERSION_2), and a valid pointer in which the server handle
+will be stored.
+
+If any kadm5_init_* is invoked locally its semantics are:
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item Initializes all the com_err error tables used by the Admin
+system.
+
+\item Acquires configuration parameters. In KADM5_API_VERSION_1, all
+the defaults specified in the configuration file are used, according
+to the realm. In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, the values in params_in are
+merged with the default values. If an illegal mask value is
+specified, KADM5_BAD_SERVER_PARAMS is returned.
+
+\item Initializes direct access to the KDC database. In
+KADM5_API_VERISON_1, if pass (or keytab) is NULL or an empty string,
+reads the master password from the stash file; otherwise, the non-NULL
+password is ignored and the user is prompted for it via the tty. In
+KADM5_API_VERSION_2, if the MKEY_FROM_KEYBOARD parameter mask is set
+and the value is non-zero, reads the master password from the user via
+the tty; otherwise, the master key is read from the stash file.
+Calling init_with_skey or init_with_creds with the MKEY_FROM_KEYBOARD
+mask set with a non-zero field is illegal, and calling them without
+the mask set is exactly like calling init_with_password.
+
+\item Initializes the dictionary (if present) for dictionary checks.
+
+\item Parses client_name as a Kerberos principal. client_name should
+usually be specified as the name of the program.
+
+\item Verifies that the struct_version and api_version specified by
+the caller are valid.
+
+\item Fills in server_handle with a handle containing all state
+information (version numbers and client name) for this ``connection.''
+\end{enumerate}
+The service_name argument is not used.
+
+RETURN CODES:
+
+\begin{description}
+\item[KADM5_NO_SRV] No Admin server can be found for the
+specified realm.
+
+\item[KADM5_RPC_ERROR] The RPC connection to the server cannot be
+initiated.
+
+\item[KADM5_BAD_PASSWORD] Incorrect password.
+
+\item[KADM5_SECURE_PRINC_MISSING] The principal
+KADM5_ADMIN_SERVICE or KADM5_CHANGEPW_SERVICE does not
+exist. This is a special-case replacement return code for ``Server
+not found in database'' for these required principals.
+
+\item[KADM5_BAD_CLIENT_PARAMS] A field in the parameters mask was
+specified to the remote client library that is not legal for remote
+clients.
+
+\item[KADM5_BAD_SERVER_PARAMS] A field in the parameters mask was
+specified to the local client library that is not legal for local
+clients.

+\subsection{kadm5_flush}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+kadm5_ret_t kadm5_flush(void *server_handle)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: none
+
+Flush all changes to the Kerberos databases, leaving the connection to
+the Admin API open. This function behaves differently when called by
+local and remote clients.
+
+For local clients, the function closes and reopens the Kerberos
+database with krb5_db_fini() and krb5_db_init().
+Although it is unlikely, either of these functions
+could return errors; in that case, this function calls
+kadm5_destroy and returns the error code. Therefore, if
+kadm5_flush does not return KADM5_OK, the connection to the
+Admin server has been terminated and, in principle, the databases
+might be corrupt.
+
+For remote clients, the function is a no-op.
+
+\subsection{kadm5_destroy}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+kadm5_ret_t kadm5_destroy(void *server_handle)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: none
+
+Close the connection to the Admin server and releases all related
+resources. This function behaves differently when called by local and
+remote clients.
+
+For remote clients, the semantics are:
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item Destroy the temporary credential cache created by
+kadm5_init.
+
+\item Tear down the GSS-API context negotiated with the server.
+
+\item Close the RPC connection.
+
+\item Free storage space associated with server_handle, after erasing
+its magic number so it won't be mistaken for a valid handle by the
+library later.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+For local clients, this function just frees the storage space
+associated with server_handle after erasing its magic number.
+
+RETURN CODES:
+
+\subsection{kadm5_create_principal}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+kadm5_ret_t
+kadm5_create_principal(void *server_handle,
+ kadm5_principal_ent_t princ, u_int32 mask,
+ char *pw);
+\end{verbatim}
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: add
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+
+\item Return KADM5_BAD_MASK if the mask is invalid.
+\item If the named principal exists, return KADM5_DUP.
+\item If the POLICY bit is set and the named policy does not exist,
+return KADM5_UNK_POLICY.
+\item If KADM5_POLICY bit is set in aux_attributes check to see if
+the password does not meets quality standards, return the appropriate
+KADM5_PASS_Q_* error code if it fails.
+\item Store the principal, set the key; see section \ref{sec:keys}.
+\item If the POLICY bit is set, increment the named policy's reference
+count by one.
+
+\item Set the pw_expiration field.
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item If the POLICY bit is set in mask, then if pw_max_life is non-zero,
+set pw_expiration to now + pw_maxlife, otherwise set pw_max_life to
+never.
+\item If the PW_EXPIRATION bit is set in mask, set pw_expiration to
+the requested value, overriding the value set above.
+\end{enumerate}
+NOTE: This is a change from the original semantics, in which policy
+expiration was enforced even on administrators. The old semantics are
+not preserved, even for version 1 callers, because this is a
+server-specific policy decision; besides, the new semantics are less
+restrictive, so all previous callers should continue to function
+properly.

+Although a principal's pw_expiration is usually computed based on its
+policy and the time at which it changes its password, this function
+also allows it to be specified explicitly. This allows an

+principal must change its password away from its initial value
+sometime within the first week.

+\item Return KADM5_BAD_MASK if the mask is invalid.

+\item Update policy reference counts.
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item If the POLICY bit is set, then increment policy count on new
+policy.
+\item If the POLICY or POLICY_CLR bit is set, and the POLICY bit in
+aux_attributes is set, decrement policy count on old policy.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\item Set pw_expiration appropriately. pw_expiration can change if:
+the POLICY bit is set in mask, so the principal is changing to a
+policy (either from another policy or no policy); the POLICY_CLR bit
+is set in mask, so the principal is changing to no policy; or
+PW_EXPIRATION is set.
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item If the POLICY bit is set in mask, set pw_expiration to
+last_pwd_change + pw_max_life if pw_max_life is non-zero, otherwise
+set pw_expiration to never.
+\item If the POLICY_CLR biti s set in mask, set pw_expiration to
+never.
+\item If PW_EXPIRATION is set, set pw_expiration to the requested
+value, overriding the value from the previous two cases. NOTE: This
+is a change from the original semantics, in which policy expiration
+was enforced even on administrators. The old semantics are not
+preserved, even for version 1 callers, because this is a
+server-specific policy decision; besides, the new semantics are less
+restrictive, so all previous callers should continue to function
+properly.

+
+Note that since the principal name may have been used as the salt for
+the principal's key, renaming the principal may render the principal's
+current password useless; with the new salt, the key generated by

+specify a new password for the principal (and administrators should
+notify the affected party).

+\end{verbatim}
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: get, or the calling principal's policy being
+the same as the policy argument. If the request is authenticated to
+the kadmin/changepw service, the get privilege is disregarded.
+
+In KADM5_API_VERSION_1, return the policy's attributes in allocated
+memory; if an error is returned entry is set to NULL. In
+KADM5_API_VERSION_2, fill in fields of the policy structure allocated
+by the caller. The caller must free the returned entry with

+\subsection{kadm5_get_policies}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+kadm5_ret_t
+kadm5_get_policies(void *server_handle, char *exp,
+ char ***pols, int *count)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Retrieves the list of principal names.
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: list
+
+If \v{exp} is NULL, all principal names are retrieved; otherwise,
+principal names that match the expression exp are retrieved. \v{pols}
+is filled in with a pointer to a NULL-terminated array of strings, and
+\v{count} is filled in with the number of principal names in the
+array. \v{pols} must be freed with a call to
+\v{kadm5_free_name_list}.
+
+All characters in the expression match themselves except ``?'' which
+matches any single character, ``*'' which matches any number of
+consecutive characters, and ``[chars]'' which matches any single
+character of ``chars''. Any character which follows a ``$\backslash$''
+matches itself exactly, and a ``$\backslash$'' cannot be the last
+character in the string.

+\subsection{kadm5_free_principal_ent, _policy_ent}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+void kadm5_free_principal_ent(void *server_handle,
+ kadm5_principal_ent_t princ);
+\end{verbatim}
+
+In KADM5_API_VERSION_1, free the structure and contents allocated by a
+call to kadm5_get_principal. In KADM5_API_VERSION_2, free the
+contents allocated by a call to kadm5_get_principal.
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: none (local operation)
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+void kadm5_free_policy_ent(kadm5_policy_ent_t policy);
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Free memory that was allocated by a call to kadm5_get_policy. If
+the argument is NULL, the function returns succesfully.
+
+AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED: none (local operation)
+
+\subsection{kadm5_free_name_list}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+void kadm5_free_name_list(void *server_handle,
+ char **names, int *count);
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Free the memory that was allocated by kadm5_get_principals or
+kadm5_get_policies. names and count must be a matched pair of
+values returned from one of those two functions.
+
+\subsection{kadm5_free_key_data}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+void kadm5_free_key_data(void *server_handle,
+ krb5_int16 *n_key_data, krb5_key_data *key_data)
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Free the memory that was allocated by kadm5_randkey_principal.
+n_key_data and key_data must be a matched pair of values returned from
+that function.
+
+\subsection{kadm5_get_privs}
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+kadm5_ret_t
+kadm5_get_privs(void *server_handle, u_int32 *privs);
+\end{verbatim}
+
+Return the caller's admin server privileges in the integer pointed to
+by the argument. The Admin API does not define any way for a
+principal's privileges to be set. Note that this function will
+probably be removed or drastically changed in future versions of this
+system.
+
+The returned value is a bitmask indicating the caller's privileges:
+
+\begin{tabular}{llr}
+{\bf Privilege} & {\bf Symbol} & {\bf Value} \\
+Get & KADM5_PRIV_GET & 0x01 \\
+Add & KADM5_PRIV_ADD & 0x02 \\
+Modify & KADM5_PRIV_MODIFY & 0x04 \\
+Delete & KADM5_PRIV_DELETE & 0x08 \\
+List & KADM5_PRIV_LIST & 0x10 \\
+Changepw & KADM5_PRIV_CPW & 0x20
+\end{tabular}
+
+There is no guarantee that a caller will have a privilege indicated by
+this function for any length of time or for any particular target;
+applications using this function must still be prepared to handle all
+possible KADM5_AUTH_* error codes.
+
+In the initial MIT Kerberos version of the admin server, permissions
+depend both on the caller and the target; this function returns a
+bitmask representing all privileges the caller can possibly have for
+any possible target.
