kswitch¶
SYNOPSIS¶
kswitch {-c cachename|-p principal}
DESCRIPTION¶
kswitch makes the specified credential cache the primary cache for the collection, if a cache collection is available.
OPTIONS¶
- -c cachename
- Directly specifies the credential cache to be made primary.
- -p principal
- Causes the cache collection to be searched for a cache containing credentials for principal. If one is found, that collection is made primary.
ENVIRONMENT¶
kswitch uses the following environment variables:
- KRB5CCNAME
- Location of the default Kerberos 5 credentials (ticket) cache, in the form type:residual. If no type prefix is present, the FILE type is assumed. The type of the default cache may determine the availability of a cache collection; for instance, a default cache of type DIR causes caches within the directory to be present in the collection.
FILES¶
- /tmp/krb5cc_[uid]
- Default location of Kerberos 5 credentials cache ([uid] is the decimal UID of the user).
