NAME

       kredentials - KDE system tray applet to monitor and update authentication tokens

DESCRIPTION

       Kredentials monitors the state of the user's Kerberos and AFS authentication tokens.  It renews Kerberos tickets every hour up to the maxi-
       mum renewable lifetime of the tickets and informs the user when the  renewable  lifetime  is  reached.	Each  time  Kerberos  tickets  are
       obtained, aklog(1) is run to obtain new AFS tokens.

OPTIONS

       -i|--inform
	      Inform the user via a KDE "passive dialog" each time tickets are renewed.

       -d|--disable-aklog
	      Don't run aklog to get new AFS tokens when renewing Kerberos creds.

BUGS

       There  aren't  really any major bugs, but the feature list can and should be expanded.  The command line options should be migrated to GUI-
       configurable settings.  The ticket renewal interval should be user-configurable.

NAME

       login.krb5 - kerberos enhanced login program

SYNOPSIS

       login.krb5 [-p] [-fFe username] [-r | -k | -K | -h hostname]

DESCRIPTION

       login.krb5  is a modification of the BSD login program which is used for two functions.	It is the sub-process used by krlogind and telnetd
       to initiate a user session and it is a replacement for the command-line login program which, when invoked with a  password,  acquires  Ker-
       beros tickets for the user.

       login.krb5  will  prompt  for a username, or take one on the command line, as login.krb5 username and will then prompt for a password. This
       password will be used to acquire Kerberos Version 5 tickets (if possible.) It will also attempt to run aklog to	get  AFS  tokens  for  the
       user.  The  version 5 tickets will be tested against a local krb5.keytab if it is available, in order to verify the tickets, before letting
       the user in. However, if the password matches the entry in /etc/passwd the user will be unconditionally	allowed  (permitting  use  of  the
       machine in case of network failure.)

OPTIONS

       -p     preserve the current environment

       -r hostname
	      pass hostname to rlogind.  Must be the last argument.

       -h hostname
	      pass hostname to telnetd, etc.  Must be the last argument.

       -f name
	      Perform pre-authenticated login, e.g., datakit, xterm, etc.; allows preauthenticated login as root.

       -F name
	      Perform pre-authenticated login, e.g., datakit, xterm, etc.; allows preauthenticated login as root.

       -e name
	      Perform pre-authenticated, encrypted login.  Must do term negotiation.

CONFIGURATION

       login.krb5  is  also  configured via krb5.conf using the login stanza. A collection of options dealing with initial authentication are pro-
       vided:

       krb5_get_tickets
	      Use password to get V5 tickets. Default value true.

       krb_run_aklog
	      Attempt to run aklog. Default value false.

       aklog_path
	      Where to find it [not yet implemented.] Default value $(prefix)/bin/aklog.

       accept_passwd
	      Don't accept plaintext passwords [not yet implemented]. Default value false.

DIAGNOSTICS

       All diagnostic messages are returned on the connection or tty associated with stderr.
