Per kdc.conf(5), the kdc.conf file doesn't live in /etc; it lives
somewhere else.  (I put it at /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kdc.conf in
RHEL/Fedora for historical reasons, while Debian/Ubuntu puts it at
/var/lib/krb5kdc/kdc.conf .)

However, as you observe, MIT krb5 will read and honor kdc.conf
directives from krb5.conf as well.
