/etc/init.d/kadmin patch including multirealm support

Description of problem:
Cannot configure kerberos multi realm kadmin/kpropd via standard sysconfig way.
There is no option for using multiple realms on kerberos.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
krb5-server-1.6.1-36.el5_4.1

Actual results:
Cannot configure

Expected results:
Configuration available

Additional info:

ad1)
If one wishes to use multiple realms on the same host, configration of krb5kdc is no problem. I have to put this

KRB5KDC_ARGS="-r REALM1 -r REALM2"

into the /etc/sysconfig/krb5kdc file, no problem here

ad2)
When someone wants to run kadmin above these two domains, it is necessary to run kadmin standalone on different port for each realm. fe.

/usr/kerberos/sbin/kadmind -r REALM1 -port 749
/usr/kerberos/sbin/kadmind -r REALM2 -port 748

there is no configuration option to do this.

ad3)
When someone wants to propagate multiple realms kerberos database to other kdc hosts, one should run something like this on the slave host

/usr/kerberos/sbin/kpropd -S -r REALM1 -P 754
/usr/kerberos/sbin/kpropd -S -r REALM2 -P 753

there is no configuration option to do this.

Suggested solution:
Add configuration file for kpropd (which does not exists at this time) and put some MULTIPLEREALM variable into this file and kadmin configuration file, edit init scripts for kpropd and kadmind

Example configuration files
/etc/sysconfig/kprop
KPROP_ARGS=
MULTIREALMS="REALM1:754 REALM2:753"

/etc/sysconfig/kadmin
MULTIREALMS="REALM1:749 REALM2:748"

Diffs according to this feature (/etc/init.d/{kprop,kadmin}) are included in the attachment.

Same bug on RHEL6 beta r2
