[Bug 1581584] [NEW] Provide log file for krb5kdc by default

[Sam Hartman]

I think it logs to syslog.
Are you seeing logging configuration that is failing because of the
systemd configuration, or are you saying that if the systemd
configuration is updated *and* a logging stanza is added it would log to
this file?

I would e xpect the kdc to log to /var/log/auth.log out of the box,
which I find intuitive.

Title:
  Provide log file for krb5kdc by default

Status in krb5 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It'd be nice if `kdc5krb` would log to a file in an intuitive location
  like `/var/log/kerberos/kdc.log`. Since the service runs as `root`
  it's only necessary to add `/var/log/kerberos` to
  `ReadWriteDirectories` in the `systemd` unit.
