    _\bk_\bd_\bb__\bi_\bn_\bi_\bt initializes a Kerberos key distribution center
    database, creating the necessary principals.

    If the optional _\br_\be_\ba_\bl_\bm argument is not present, _\bk_\bd_\bb__\bi_\bn_\bi_\bt
    prompts for a realm name (defaulting to the definition in
    /usr/include/krb.h).  After determining the realm to be
    created, it prompts for a master key password.  The master
    key password is used to encrypt every encryption key stored
    in the database.
