-See :ref:`logging` section in :ref:`krb5.conf(5)`
+The [logging] section indicates how :ref:`krb5kdc(8)` and
+:ref:`kadmind(8)` perform logging. The keys in this section are
+daemon names, which may be one of:
+
+**admin_server**
+ Specifies how :ref:`kadmind(8)` performs logging.
+
+**kdc**
+ Specifies how :ref:`krb5kdc(8)` performs logging.
+
+**default**
+ Specifies how either daemon performs logging in the absence of
+ relations specific to the daemon.
+
+Values are of the following forms:
+
+**FILE=**\ *filename* or **FILE:**\ *filename*
+ This value causes the daemon's logging messages to go to the
+ *filename*. If the ``=`` form is used, the file is overwritten.
+ If the ``:`` form is used, the file is appended to.
+
+**STDERR**
+ This value causes the daemon's logging messages to go to its
+ standard error stream.
+
+**CONSOLE**
+ This value causes the daemon's logging messages to go to the
+ console, if the system supports it.
+
+**DEVICE=**\ *<devicename>*
+ This causes the daemon's logging messages to go to the specified
+ device.
+
+**SYSLOG**\ [\ **:**\ *severity*\ [\ **:**\ *facility*\ ]]
+ This causes the daemon's logging messages to go to the system log.
+
+ The severity argument specifies the default severity of system log
+ messages. This may be any of the following severities supported
+ by the syslog(3) call, minus the ``LOG_`` prefix: **EMERG**,
+ **ALERT**, **CRIT**, **ERR**, **WARNING**, **NOTICE**, **INFO**,
+ and **DEBUG**.
+
+ The facility argument specifies the facility under which the
+ messages are logged. This may be any of the following facilities
+ supported by the syslog(3) call minus the LOG\_ prefix: **KERN**,
+ **USER**, **MAIL**, **DAEMON**, **AUTH**, **LPR**, **NEWS**,
+ **UUCP**, **CRON**, and **LOCAL0** through **LOCAL7**.
+
+ If no severity is specified, the default is **ERR**. If no
+ facility is specified, the default is **AUTH**.
+
+In the following example, the logging messages from the KDC will go to
+the console and to the system log under the facility LOG_DAEMON with
+default severity of LOG_INFO; and the logging messages from the
+administrative server will be appended to the file
+``/var/adm/kadmin.log`` and sent to the device ``/dev/tty04``.

+ the filesystem. The default is
+ ``/usr/local/var/krb5kdc/principal``.
+
+**db_library**

+
+**disable_last_success**
+ If set to ``true``, suppresses KDC updates to the "Last successful
+ authentication" field of principal entries requiring
+ preauthentication. Setting this flag may improve performance.
+ (Principal entries which do not require preauthentication never
+ update the "Last successful authentication" field.).
+
+**disable_lockout**
+ If set to ``true``, suppresses KDC updates to the "Last failed
+ authentication" and "Failed password attempts" fields of principal
+ entries requiring preauthentication. Setting this flag may
+ improve performance, but also disables account lockout.
+
+**ldap_conns_per_server**
+ This LDAP-specific tag indicates the number of connections to be
+ maintained per LDAP server.
+
+**ldap_kadmind_dn**
+ This LDAP-specific tag indicates the default bind DN for the
+ :ref:`kadmind(8)` daemon. kadmind does a login to the directory
+ as this object. This object should have the rights to read and
+ write the Kerberos data in the LDAP database.
+
+**ldap_kdc_dn**
+ This LDAP-specific tag indicates the default bind DN for the
+ :ref:`krb5kdc(8)` daemon. The KDC does a login to the directory
+ as this object. This object should have the rights to read the
+ Kerberos data in the LDAP database, and to write data unless
+ **disable_lockout** and **disable_last_success** are true.
+
+**ldap_kerberos_container_dn**
+ This LDAP-specific tag indicates the DN of the container object
+ where the realm objects will be located.
+
+**ldap_servers**
+ This LDAP-specific tag indicates the list of LDAP servers that the
+ Kerberos servers can connect to. The list of LDAP servers is
+ whitespace-separated. The LDAP server is specified by a LDAP URI.
+ It is recommended to use ``ldapi:`` or ``ldaps:`` URLs to connect
+ to the LDAP server.

+**ldap_service_password_file**
+ This LDAP-specific tag indicates the file containing the stashed

-**kdc**
- Specifies how :ref:`krb5kdc(8)` performs logging.
-
-**default**
- Specifies how either daemon performs logging in the absence of
- relations specific to the daemon.
-

- *filename*. If the ``=`` form is used, the file is overwritten.
