Hi Everyone,

I've a question I prefer to ask before starting to test with the environment to proceed in a correct way.
We have a Kerberos LDAP database backend  and I was wondering which is the correct procedure to add a new enctype to an existing and populated database and REALM.
Currently we have two supported and default enctypes for tkt and tgs. However, now we have an application that does not support our current supported enctypes so we have to add a new enctype.

Which is the correct procedure to add this enctype and to generate an additional key for this enctype for each principal involved?

I suppose that the enctype used will be the strongest one of the supported enctype keys existing for that principal.

Thank you so much.
Regards.
