KDESTROY(1)                                                                                      KDESTROY(1)



NAME
       kdestroy - destroy Kerberos tickets

SYNOPSIS
       kdestroy [-q] [-a | -A | -c cache_name | -p principal_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 Kerberos 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 com-bined combined
              bined with -a, -A or -p.

              The default credentials cache may vary between systems.

       -p principal_name
              Destroy all credentials caches which contain tickets for principal_name. principal_name should
              be in the Kerberos 5 principal format.  This option cannot 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.
