I forwarded a program I whipped up to generate srvtabs (cuts out the need
for calling "kas" followed by the AFS ksrvutil program. The basic steps
are: (I think, it works for me :-)
struct ktc_encryptionKey key, newkey;
struct ktc_token token;
struct ubik_client **conn;
long code;
/* get cell, Admin key, etc, then call */
code = ka_GetAdminToken(name, inst, cell, &key, 300, &token, 1);
code = ka_AuthServerConn(cell, KA_MAINTENANCE_SERVICE, &token, &conn);
code = ubik_Call (KAM_SetPassword, conn, 0, name, inst, 0, newkey);
code = ubik_ClientDestroy (conn);
My program actually gets a random key then trys to create the principal.
If that fails with a KAEXIST then I call KAM_SetPassword.
i.e:
code = ubik_Call (KAM_GetRandomKey, conn, 0, &newkey);
code = ubik_Call (KAM_CreateUser, conn, 0, name, inst, newkey);
if (code == KAEXIST)
code = ubik_Call (KAM_SetPassword, conn, 0, name, inst, 0, newkey);
