Description

For example, in krb5.conf file with the following section:

[realms]
    ATHENA.MIT.EDU = {
        kdc = kerberos.mit.edu
        kdc = kerberos-1.mit.edu
        kdc = kerberos-2.mit.edu:750
        admin_server = kerberos.mit.edu
        master_kdc = kerberos.mit.edu
    }

Kerby client will get the kdc list, then try to send message to first running kdc.
