      _\bk_\bd_\bb_\b__\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_\b__\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.

                          had an existing database.
