+.SH NAME
+kdb_edit \- Kerberos key distribution center database editing utility
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+kdb_edit [
+.B \-n
+]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I kdb_edit
+is used to create or change principals stored in the Kerberos key
+distribution center (KDC) database.
+.PP
+When executed,
+.I kdb_edit
+prompts for the master key string and verifies that it matches the
+master key stored in the database.
+If the
+.B \-n
+option is specified, the master key is instead fetched from the master
+key cache file.
+.PP
+Once the master key has been verified,
+.I kdb_edit
+begins a prompt loop. The user is prompted for the principal and
+instance to be modified. If the entry is not found the user may create
+it.
+Once an entry is found or created, the user may set the password,
+expiration date, maximum ticket lifetime, and attributes.
+Default expiration dates, maximum ticket lifetimes, and attributes are
+presented in brackets; if the user presses return the default is selected.
+There is no default password.
+The password RANDOM is interpreted specially, and if entered
+the user may have the program select a random DES key for the
+principal.
+.PP
+Upon successfully creating or changing the entry, ``Edit O.K.'' is
+printed.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.TP 20n
+"verify_master_key: Invalid master key, does not match database."
+The master key string entered was incorrect.
