                     11: .SH SYNOPSIS
                     12: .B make_keypair hostname [ hostname ... ] \- generate Kerberos host key pair
                     13: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     14: The
                     15: .I make_keypair
                     16: command
                     17: is used to create pairs of DES keys for
                     18: each host.
                     19: The keys are used by priviledged programs such as
                     20: .IR register (1)
                     21: to make remote updates to the Kerberos database without
                     22: having to have first acquired a Kerberos ticket granting ticket (TGT).
                     23: The keys created by
                     24: .I make_keypair
                     25: are placed (by hand) in the filesystems of the
                     26: kerberos server in /etc/kerberosIV/register_keys,
                     27: and in the root directory on the clients.
                     28: For example, the file /.update.key128.32.130.3 would
                     29: contain a copy of the key on the client with
                     30: IP address 128.32.130.3.
                     31: These keys provide a shared secret which may be used to establish
                     32: a secure channel between the client hosts and the Kerberos server.
                     33: .SH FILES
