NAME
       kinit - Obtains and caches ticket-granting ticket

SYNOPSIS
       kinit [-c cachename] [-f] [-l lifetime] [-p] [-r lifetime] [-v] [principal]

OPTIONS
       Specifies  an alternative credentials cache, cachename, to be used in place of the default credentials cache.  The kinit command overwrites
       the contents of the alternative cache with the current credentials.

       The name of the default credentials cache may vary between systems.  However, if the KRB5CCNAME environment variable is set, its  value	is
       used  to  name  the  default cache.  Requests the FORWARDABLE option.  This option allows a ticket-granting ticket with a different network
       address than the present ticket-granting ticket to be issued to the principal.  For forwardable tickets	to  be	granted,  the  principal's
       account	in the registry must specify that the principal can be granted forwardable tickets.  Specifies the lifetime of the ticket-granting
       ticket in hours.  If this option is not specified, the default ticket lifetime (set by each site using the rgy_edit(1m) command)  is  used.
       Requests  the  PROXIABLE  option.  This option allows a ticket with a different network address than the present ticket to be issued to the
       principal.  For proxiable tickets to be granted, the principal's account in the registry must specify that the  principal  can  be  granted
       proxiable  tickets.   Requests  the RENEWABLE option.  This option allows the tickets issued to the principal to be renewed.  For renewable
       tickets to be granted, the principal's account in the registry must specify that the principal can be granted renewable tickets.  The life-
       time of the ticket-granting ticket is specified in hours by lifetime.  Specifies that the command should run in verbose mode.

ARGUMENTS
       The principal argument specifies the name of the principal for whom the ticket-granting ticket should be obtained. If principal is omitted,
       the principal name from the existing cache is reused.

DESCRIPTION
       The kinit command can be used to refresh a DCE credentials cache.  When you invoke kinit, it prompts for your password.

       The ticket lifetime and renewable lifetime are set in the following format: {num {interval}}...

       where: A number that specifies the number of the interval; interval can be specified by the following: w - weeks d - days h  -  hours  m  -
       minutes s - seconds

       For example, to set the lifetime to 3 weeks, 5 days, and 10 hours, the entry would be the following: 3w5d10h

FILES
       If  the KRB5CCNAME environment variable is not set, the name of the file is in the form shown where [unix_id] is the decimal UNIX ID of the
       user.  If the KRB5CCNAME environment variable is set, its setting determines the name of the file.

NOTE
       kinit provided under "/usr/bin" is part of Kerberos V5 client product.  For DCE operations use "/opt/dce/bin/kinit".
