NAME
kimpersonate -- impersonate a user when there exist a srvtab, keyfile or KeyFile SYNOPSIS
kimpersonate [-s string | --server=string] [-c string | --client=string] [-k string | --keytab=string] [-5 | --krb5] [-e integer | --expire-time=integer] [-a string | --client-address=string] [-t string | --enc-type=string] [-f string | --ticket-flags=string] [--verbose] [--version] [--help] DESCRIPTION
The kimpersonate program creates a "fake" ticket using the service-key of the service. The service key can be read from a Kerberos 5 keytab, AFS KeyFile or (if compiled with support for Kerberos 4) a Kerberos 4 srvtab. Supported options: -s string, --server=string name of server principal -c string, --client=string name of client principal -k string, --keytab=string name of keytab file -5, --krb5 create a Kerberos 5 ticket -e integer, --expire-time=integer lifetime of ticket in seconds -a string, --client-address=string address of client -t string, --enc-type=string encryption type -f string, --ticket-flags=string ticket flags for krb5 ticket --verbose Verbose output --version Print version --help FILES
Uses /etc/krb5.keytab, /etc/srvtab and /usr/afs/etc/KeyFile when available and the -k option is used with an appropriate prefix. EXAMPLES
kimpersonate can be used in samba root preexec option or for debugging. kimpersonate -s host/hummel.e.kth.se@E.KTH.SE -c lha@E.KTH.SE -5 will create a Kerberos 5 ticket for lha@E.KTH.SE for the host hummel.e.kth.se if there exists a keytab entry for it in /etc/krb5.keytab. SEE ALSO

NAME
klist - list cached Kerberos tickets SYNOPSIS
klist [-5] [-4] [-e] [[-c] [-f] [-s] [-a [-n]]] [-k [-t] [-K]] [cache_name | keytab_name] DESCRIPTION
Klist lists the Kerberos principal and Kerberos tickets held in a credentials cache, or the keys held in a keytab file. If klist was built with Kerberos 4 support, the default behavior is to list both Kerberos 5 and Kerberos 4 credentials. Otherwise, klist will default to listing only Kerberos 5 credentials. OPTIONS
-5 list Kerberos 5 credentials. This overrides whatever the default built-in behavior may be. This option may be used with -4 -4 list Kerberos 4 credentials. This overrides whatever the default built-in behavior may be. This option is only available if kinit was built with Kerberos 4 compatibility. This option may be used with -5 -e displays the encryption types of the session key and the ticket for each credential in the credential cache, or each key in the keytab file. -c List tickets held in a credentials cache. This is the default if neither -c nor -k is specified. -f shows the flags present in the credentials, using the following abbreviations: F Forwardable f forwarded P Proxiable p proxy D postDateable d postdated R Renewable I Initial i invalid -s causes klist to run silently (produce no output), but to still set the exit status according to whether it finds the credentials cache. The exit status is `0' if klist finds a credentials cache, and `1' if it does not. -a display list of addresses in credentials. -n show numeric addresses instead of reverse-resolving addresses. -k List keys held in a keytab file. -t display the time entry timestamps for each keytab entry in the keytab file. -K display the value of the encryption key in each keytab entry in the keytab file. If cache_name or keytab_name is not specified, klist will display the credentials in the default credentials cache or keytab file as appro- priate. If the KRB5CCNAME environment variable is set, its value is used to name the default ticket cache. ENVIRONMENT
Klist uses the following environment variables: KRB5CCNAME Location of the Kerberos 5 credentials (ticket) cache. KRBTKFILE Filename of the Kerberos 4 credentials (ticket) cache. FILES
/tmp/krb5cc_[uid] default location of Kerberos 5 credentials cache ([uid] is the decimal UID of the user). /tmp/tkt[uid] default location of Kerberos 4 credentials cache ([uid] is the decimal UID of the user). /etc/krb5.keytab default location for the local host's keytab file. SEE ALSO
