Documentation page:
Currently the page says: "The keytab file must be placed in the configured default location which almost always is /etc/krb5.keytab." It has been tested that setting the environment variable KRB5_KTNAME works as expected and documented here: https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-latest/doc/basic/keytab_def.html I think it would be useful to mention that in the documentation, this allows users to know they can use custom paths for they keytab file. |

Changing to a bug since it's better suited as one instead of being a generic task. |
