ssh to your master kdc and runthe following as root:
kadmin.local -q "addprinc -randkey username"
for each user to create a userwith a random password
With a few lines of scripting, you can automate that.
If you have a keytab for an admin account, then you don't have to ssh to
the kdc, and you can use normal kadmin instead of kadmin.local.
