[Bug 900447] [NEW] Man 5 page for kdc.conf does not mention acceptable encryption types

[Leonardo Borda]

Public bug reported:

Hi

It would be helpful if the man 5 page for kdc.conf could explicitly
specify the acceptable encryption types we can use.

Currently the only way is looking at the source code in the following file:
/krb5-1.9.1+dfsg/src/lib/crypto/krb/etypes.c

grep ENCTYPE_ ./krb5-1.9.1+dfsg/src/lib/crypto/krb/etypes.c
    { ENCTYPE_DES_CBC_CRC,
    { ENCTYPE_DES_CBC_MD4,
    { ENCTYPE_DES_CBC_MD5,
    { ENCTYPE_DES_CBC_RAW,
    { ENCTYPE_DES3_CBC_RAW,
    { ENCTYPE_DES3_CBC_SHA1,
    { ENCTYPE_DES_HMAC_SHA1,
    { ENCTYPE_ARCFOUR_HMAC,
    { ENCTYPE_ARCFOUR_HMAC_EXP,
    { ENCTYPE_AES128_CTS_HMAC_SHA1_96,
    { ENCTYPE_AES256_CTS_HMAC_SHA1_96,
    { ENCTYPE_CAMELLIA128_CTS_CMAC,
    { ENCTYPE_CAMELLIA256_CTS_CMAC,
