k5start is a modified version of kinit that can use keytabs to authenticate,
|
|
can run as a daemon and wake up periodically to refresh a ticket, and can run
|
|
single commands with their own authentication credentials and refresh those
|
|
credentials until the command exits.
|
|
|
|
It is commonly used to maintain Kerberos tickets for services that need to
|
|
authenticate to minimize the amount of Kerberos-related logic that must be
|
|
in the service itself.
