# Disable retrying in kpropd, when kadm5 interface cannot be initialized.

#

# When MIT kpropd cannot contact master KDC, it keeps retrying indefinitely.

# This doesn't play well with SMF; krb5_prop service is reported as online,

# while the daemon really just keeps failing to connect.

#

# This patch changes kpropd, so that it exits with error immediately.

#

# This is a Solaris specific change, it will not be contributed upstream.

# Patch source: in-house
