<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
The Kerberos locator plugin
<command>sssd_krb5_locator_plugin</command> is used by the Kerberos
provider of
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>
to tell the Kerberos libraries what Realm and which KDC to use.
Typically this is done in
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>krb5.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>
which is always read by the Kerberos libraries. To simplify the
configuration the Realm and the KDC can be defined in
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>
as described in
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd-krb5.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>
</para>
<para>
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>
puts the Realm and the name or IP address of the KDC into the
environment variables SSSD_KRB5_REALM and SSSD_KRB5_KDC respectively.
When <command>sssd_krb5_locator_plugin</command> is called by the
kerberos libraries it reads and evaluates these variables and returns
them to the libraries.

<title>NOTES</title>
<para>
Not all Kerberos implementations support the use of plugins. If
<command>sssd_krb5_locator_plugin</command> is not available on
your system you have to edit /etc/krb5.conf to reflect your
Kerberos setup.
</para>
<para>
If the environment variable SSSD_KRB5_LOCATOR_DEBUG is set to any
value debug messages will be sent to stderr.
