Is it possible to have the KDC load multiple Kerberos config files? How
is that set up? I thought /etc/krb5.conf was hardwired.

I straced it, but I couldn't find any hint of it reading any other
config file than krb5.conf and kdc.conf. krb5.conf is only read once,
and it contains only one logging directive. kdc.conf is read twice for
some reason, but it doesn't contain any logging directives.
Thanks for the ideas, but I can't seem to get any further on that. Do
you have any more ideas?
