13 The kdestroy utility destroys the user's active Kerberos authorization
14 tickets by writing zeros to the specified credentials cache that con‐
15 tains them. If the credentials cache is not specified, the default cre‐
16 dentials cache is destroyed. If the credentials cache does not exist,
17 kdestroy displays a message to that effect.

20 After overwriting the cache, kdestroy removes the cache from the sys‐
21 tem. The utility displays a message indicating the success or failure
22 of the operation. If kdestroy is unable to destroy the cache, it will
23 warn you by making your terminal beep.
24
25
26 If desired, you can place the kdestroy command in your .logout file so
27 that your tickets are destroyed automatically when you logout.
28
30 The following options are supported:
31
32 -c cache_name Uses cache_name as the credentials (ticket) cache name
33 and location. If this option is not used, the default
34 cache name and location are used.
35
36
37 -q Runs quietly. Your terminal will not beep when kde‐
38 stroy fails to destroy the tickets.

75 Only the tickets in the specified credentials cache are destroyed. Sep‐
76 arate ticket caches are used to hold root instance and password chang‐
77 ing tickets. These files should probably be destroyed too, or all of a
78 user's tickets should be kept in a single credential cache.
