krb5-auth-dialog - Kerberos 5 credential checking
Contents
Arguments
--auto If this option is specified, rb5-auth-dialogwill start only if it finds that the user has Kerberos
credentials. This may be used to ensure that only users who actually use Kerberos see the program.
Note that in some settings, users may authenticate to Kerberos at a later time even if they do not
have Kerberos credentials initially.
Bugs
Probably, but let's hope not. If you find any, please file them in the bug database at

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.
