KSRVTGT(1)                                             KSRVTGT(1)


NAME
       ksrvtgt  - fetch and store Kerberos ticket-granting-ticket
       using a service key



SYNOPSIS
       ksrvtgt name instance [[realm] srvtab]

DESCRIPTION
       ksrvtgt retrieves a ticket-granting ticket with a lifetime
       of  five (5) minutes for the principal name.instance@realm
       (or name.instance@localrealm if realm is not  supplied  on
       the command line), decrypts the response using the service
       key found  in  srvtab  (or  in  /etc/kerberosIV/srvtab  if
       srvtab  is  not specified on the command line), and stores
       the ticket in the standard ticket cache.

       This command  is  intended  primarily  for  use  in  shell
       scripts and other batch-type facilities.

DIAGNOSTICS
       "Generic kerberos failure (kfailure)" can indicate a whole
       range of problems, the most common of which is the inabil-
       ity to read the service key file.

FILES
       /etc/kerberosIV/krb.conf
                           to get the name of the local realm.

       /tmp/tkt[uid]       The default ticket file.

       /etc/kerberosIV/srvtab
                           The default service key file.
