NAME

       kdestroy - destroy Kerberos tickets

SYNOPSIS

       kdestroy [-A] [-q] [-c cache_name]

DESCRIPTION

       The  kdestroy  utility  destroys  the user's active Kerberos authorization tickets by writing zeros to the specified credentials cache that
       contains them.  If the credentials cache is not specified, the default credentials cache is destroyed.

OPTIONS

       -A     Destroys all caches in the collection, if a cache collection is available.  -q Run quietly.  Normally kdestroy beeps if it fails	to
	      destroy the user's tickets.  The -q flag suppresses this behavior.

       -c cache_name
	      use  cache_name as the credentials (ticket) cache name and location; if this option is not used, the default cache name and location
	      are used.

	      The default credentials cache may vary between systems.  If the KRB5CCNAME environment variable is set, its value is  used  to  name
	      the default ticket cache.

       Most  installations  recommend  that  you place the kdestroy command in your .logout file, so that your tickets are destroyed automatically
       when you log out.

ENVIRONMENT

       Kdestroy uses the following environment variables:

       KRB5CCNAME      Location of the default Kerberos 5 credentials (ticket) cache, in the form type:residual.  If no type  prefix  is  present,
		       the  FILE  type	is  assumed.   The  type  of  the  default cache may determine the availability of a cache collection; for
		       instance, a default cache of type DIR causes caches within the directory to be present in the collection.

FILES

       /tmp/krb5cc_[uid]  default location of Kerberos 5 credentials cache ([uid] is the decimal UID of the user).

SEE ALSO

       kinit(1), klist(1), krb5(3)

BUGS

       Only the tickets in the specified credentials cache are destroyed.  Separate ticket caches are used to  hold  root  instance  and  password
       changing tickets.  These should probably be destroyed too, or all of a user's tickets kept in a single credentials cache.
