specifying an alternate realm/krb5.conf configuration for kdc5.conf

Sorry, I did mean kdc.conf - and on my implementation it is
in /var/kerberos/krb5kdc.

I do understand:
kdc.conf = server config
krb5.conf = client config

But apparently when krb5kdc starts it also queries some data from
/etc/krb5.conf (the default realm at least).

I want it to look to a location other than /etc/krb5.conf for realm
information (or anything else it might need from that file).

thanks!
