krb5-auth-dialog(1)                               System Administrator's Manual                              krb5-auth-dialog(1)



NAME
       krb5-auth-dialog - Kerberos 5 credential checking


SYNOPSIS
       krb5-auth-dialog [--always|--auto]


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


ARGUMENTS
       --always
              By  default,  krb5-auth-dialog will exit if it finds that the user has no Kerberos credentials.  If this option is
              specified, then it will instead attempt to get credentials.


       --auto Overrides the --always option, restoring the default behavior.


SEE ALSO
       krb5.conf(5)


BUGS
       Probably, but let's hope not.  If you find any, please file  them  in  the  bug  database  at  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/
       against the "krb5-auth-dialog" component.
