kdestroy - destroy Kerberos tickets kdestroy [ -f ] [ -q ] The kdestroy utility destroys the user's active Kerberos authorization tickets. If no tickets currently exist for the user, kdestroy displays a message to that effect.

The utility displays a message indicating the success or failure of the operation. If kdestroy is unable to destroy the tickets, the utility will warn you by making your terminal beep.

You can place the kdestroy command in your .logout file so that your tickets are destroyed automatically when you logout.

The options to kdestroy are as follows:

7 -f kdestroy runs without displaying the status message.

-q kdestroy will not make your terminal beep if it fails to destroy the tickets.

KRBTKFILE environment variable if set, otherwise

/tmp/tkt[uid]

kerberos(1), kinit(1), klist(1)

Only the tickets in the user's current ticket file are destroyed. Separate ticket files are used to hold root instance and password changing tickets. These files should probably be destroyed too, or all of a user's tickets kept in a single ticket file.
