kdestroy(8krb) [ultrix man page]

kdestroy(8krb)															    kdestroy(8krb)

Name
       kdestroy - destroy Kerberos tickets

Syntax
       /usr/bin/kdestroy [ -f ] [ -q ]

Description
       The  utility  destroys the user's active Kerberos authorization tickets by writing zeros to the file that contains them. If the ticket file
       does not exist, displays a message to that effect.

       After overwriting the file, removes the file from the system. The utility displays a message indicating the success or failure of the oper-
       ation.  If  is  unable  to  destroy the ticket file, the utility will issue a warning by making the terminal beep.  The ticket file has the
       name, where uid is the user ID of the process.

       If your site does not provide a ticket-destroying mechanism, you can place the command in your file so  that  your  tickets  are  destroyed
       automatically at logout.

Options
       -f     Causes to run without displaying the status message.

       -q     Disables terminal beeping if fails to destroy the tickets.

Restrictions
       The utility is useful only in environments with user-level authentication.  ULTRIX Kerberos does not support user-level authentication.

       Only the tickets in the user's current ticket file are destroyed.

kinit(8krb)															       kinit(8krb)

Name
       kinit - Kerberos login utility

Syntax
       /usr/bin/kinit [ -irv ]

Description
       You  use the command to log into the Kerberos authentication and authorization system.  You also use the command when your original tickets
       have expired.  When you use the command without options, the utility prompts for a username and a Kerberos password and attempts to authen-
       ticate to the local Kerberos server.

       If  Kerberos  authenticates you correctly, retrieves your initial ticket and puts it in the ticket file specified by the KRBTKFILE environ-
       ment variable.  If you have not defined this variable, the ticket is stored in the file

       Make sure you use the command to destroy any active tickets before ending your login session.  You may want to put the command in a file so
       that all tickets are destroyed automatically when you log out.  Only registered Kerberos users can use the Kerberos system.

Options
       -i     Causes to prompt you for a Kerberos instance.

       -r     Causes to prompt you for a Kerberos realm.  This option lets you authenticate yourself with a remote Kerberos server.

       -v     Initiates verbose mode.	This causes to print the name of the ticket file used and a status message indicating the success or fail-
	      ure of your login attempt.

Restrictions
       Although user-level authentication is not supported, is useful for testing the installation of Kerberos functionality, by determining if  a
       newly  installed  principal  can  obtain  a  ticket-granting  ticket.  For example, to determine if the running on machine X can obtain its
       ticket-granting ticket, you can run input the principal name, the instance, X, and the password of If succeeds, then Kerberos is  correctly
       installed on machine X.

       The option has not been fully implemented.
