     --session-enc-type=string
             session encryption type (defaults to enc-type or "des-cbc-crc" for afs service
             tickets)

     -f string, --ticket-flags=string
             ticket flags for krb5 ticket

     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.
