You can specify the following information in this segment:

User's key encryption types
KERBNAME
User's local principal name
MAXTKTLFE
User's maximum ticket life

To define or change information in the KERB segment of a user profile, including your own, you must have the SPECIAL attribute or at least UPDATE authority to the segment through field-level access checking. To display information in the KERB segment of a user profile, you must have the SPECIAL attribute, the AUDITOR attribute, or at least READ authority to the segment through field-level access checking.
