NAME

       hpropd — receive a propagated database

SYNOPSIS

       hpropd   [-d file | --database=file]   [-n   |   --stdin]  [--print]  [-i  |  --no-inetd]  [-k  keytab  |
              --keytab=keytab] [-4 | --v4dump]

DESCRIPTION

       hpropd receives a database sent by hprop.  and writes it as a local database.

       By default, hpropd expects to be started from inetd if stdin is a  socket  and  expects  to  receive  the
       dumped  database over stdin otherwise.  If the database is sent over the network, it is authenticated and
       encrypted.  Only connections authenticated with the principal kadmin/hprop are accepted.

       Options supported:

       -d file, --database=file
               database

       -n, --stdin
               read from stdin

       --print
               print dump to stdout

       -i, --no-inetd
               not started from inetd

       -k keytab, --keytab=keytab
               keytab to use for authentication

       -4, --v4dump
