Changing Principal Attributes

		Changing Principal Attributes
		You can change the attributes of a principal in the Principal Information
		window (Figure 8-5). These attributes are the characteristics and
		properties assigned to a user or a service principal. Attributes control
		how a principal behaves and what that principal can do, such as
		renewing and forwarding valid tickets.
		To change the principal attributes, complete the following steps:
Step	1.	In the HP Kerberos Administrator window, choose the Principals tab
		and select the realm of the principal.
Step	2.	Click List All or Search to find the principal.
Step	3.	Select the principal name from List of Principals, and click Edit to
		display the Principal Information window as shown in Figure 8-2.
Step	4.	Choose the Attributes tab to change the attributes for the current
		principal. For more information on attributes, see “Attributes Tab
		(Principal Information Window)” on page 168 and “Password Tab
		(Principal Information Window)” on page 160.
Step	5.	Click OK to accept the new attributes and to close the Principal
		Information window.

You can use the Principal Information window>Edit>Load Default Values option to quickly reload default values or restore previously saved values at any time while editing a principal. When you reload default or restored values, all the fields in the Principal Information window tabs are reset to the default or previously saved values.
