You can also use ktutil to create a keytab and keytab entry for an
admin principal using its password, then use
kadmin -k -t <keytab> -p <admin_principal> -q "<kadmin command>"
It would be nice if kadmin took multiple command arguments. That's a
trivial patch, probably.
It would be nicer if there were a Perl or Tcl module (I think there's
some bits of a Tcl interface in the test code already, in
src/kadmin/testing and src/lib/kadm5/unit-test/ -- hmmm, maybe it's
complete enough...).
