kf [-p port | --port=port] [-l login | --login=login] [-c ccache | --ccache=ccache] [-F | --forwardable] [-G | --no-forwardable] [-h | --help] [--version] host ...
DESCRIPTION
The kf program forwards tickets to a remote host through an authenticated
and encrypted stream. Options supported are:
- -p port, --port=port
- port to connect to
- -l login, --login=login
- remote login name
- -c ccache, --ccache=ccache
- remote cred cache
- -F, --forwardable
- forward forwardable credentials
- -G, --no-forwardable
- do not forward forwardable credentials
- -h, --help
- --version
- kf is useful when you do not want to enter your password on a remote host but want to have your tickets one for example AFS.
- In order for kf to work you will need to acquire your initial ticket with forwardable flag, i.e. kinit --forwardable.
- telnet is able to forward tickets by itself.
