NAME

       kgetcred — get a ticket for a particular service

SYNOPSIS

       kgetcred    [--canonicalize]   [-c   -cache   |   --cache=cache]   [-e   enctype   |   --enctype=enctype]
                [-name-type=name-type] [--no-transit-check] [--version] [--help] service
       kgetcred [options] -name-type=SRV_HST service hostname

DESCRIPTION

       kgetcred obtains a ticket for a service.  Usually tickets for services are  obtained  automatically  when
       needed but sometimes for some odd reason you want to obtain a particular ticket or of a special type.

       The  second  form  applies  hostname  canonicalization  using  local  name canonicalization rules just as
       applications normally would, possibly enabling canonicalization via referrals.

       Supported options:

       --canonicalize
               requests that the KDC canonicalize the principal.

       --name-type=name-type
               the name-type to use when parsing the principal name.

       -c cache, --cache=cache
               the credential cache to use.

       --delegation-credential-cache=cache
               the credential cache to use for delegation.

       -e enctype, --enctype=enctype
               encryption type to use.

       --no-transit-check
               requests that the KDC doesn't do transit checking.
