KDESTROY(1)                                           KDESTROY(1)



NAME
       kdestroy - destroy Kerberos tickets

SYNOPSIS
       kdestroy  [-q]  [-a  |  -A  |  -c  cache_name | -p princi-
       pal_name]

DESCRIPTION
       The kdestroy utility destroys the user's  active  Kerberos
       authentication  tickets  by writing zeros to the specified
       credentials cache that contains them.  If the  credentials
       cache  is  not specified, the default credentials cache is
       destroyed.  kdestroy will destroy both Kerberos 4 and Ker-
       beros 5 tickets if they are present.

OPTIONS
       -q     Run  quietly.  Normally kdestroy prints an error if
              it fails to destroy the  user's  tickets.   The  -q
              flag suppresses this behavior.

       -a     Destroy  all credentials caches (same as -A).  This
              option cannot be combined with -c or -p.

       -A     Destroy all credentials caches (same as -a).   This
              option cannot be combined with -c or -p.

       -c cache_name
              Use  cache_name  as  the credentials (ticket) cache
              name and location. This option cannot  be  combined
              with -a, -A or -p.

              The default credentials cache may vary between sys-
              tems.

       -p principal_name
              Destroy all credentials caches which contain  tick-
              ets for principal_name. principal_name should be in
              the Kerberos 5 principal format.  This option  can-
              not be combined with -a, -A or -c.

       Most  Kerberos  installations recommend that you place the
       kdestroy -A command in your .logout  file,  so  that  your
       tickets are destroyed automatically when you log out.
