Disable and Enable kdc on Mac OS X

If you don't like or need the kdc process on Mac OS X, which opens TCP port 88 to the world, you can disable it with launchctl.

Disable:

sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.Kerberos.kdc.plist

Enable:

sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.Kerberos.kdc.plist

For further details about kdc, see kdc -- Kerberos 5 server.
