<h1>Configuration Files<a class="headerlink" href="#configuration-files" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>Kerberos uses configuration files to allow administrators to specify
settings on a per-machine basis. <a class="reference internal" href="krb5_conf.html#krb5-conf-5"><span class="std std-ref">krb5.conf</span></a> applies to all
applications using the Kerboros library, on clients and servers.
For KDC-specific applications, additional settings can be specified in
<a class="reference internal" href="kdc_conf.html#kdc-conf-5"><span class="std std-ref">kdc.conf</span></a>; the two files are merged into a configuration profile
used by applications accessing the KDC database directly. <a class="reference internal" href="kadm5_acl.html#kadm5-acl-5"><span class="std std-ref">kadm5.acl</span></a>
is also only used on the KDC, it controls permissions for modifying the
KDC database.</p>
