+<p>A keytab (short for “key table”) stores long-term keys for one or more
principals. Keytabs are normally represented by files in a standard
format, although in rare cases they can be represented in other ways.
Keytabs are used most often to allow server applications to accept
authentications from clients, but can also be used to obtain initial
credentials for client applications.</p>
