NAME

SYNOPSIS

10       krb5-auth-dialog [--auto]
11
12

DESCRIPTION

14       The krb5-auth-dialog application will periodically check (every 30 sec‐
15       onds) if the user has Kerberos credentials, and if  so,  if  they  will
16       expire  soon  (in less than 30 minutes).  If it determines that this is
17       the case, krb5-auth-dialog will attempt to  obtain  fresh  credentials,
18       prompting the user for whatever information is necessary.

ARGUMENTS

22       --auto If  this  option is specified, rb5-auth-dialogwill start only if
23              it finds that the user has Kerberos  credentials.  This  may  be
24              used to ensure that only users who actually use Kerberos see the
25              program.  Note that in some settings, users may authenticate  to
26              Kerberos  at a later time even if they do not have Kerberos cre‐
27              dentials initially.
