Generate an initial ticket called Ticket Granted Ticket (TGT) from the Key Distribution
Center to use Kerberos authentication.
The procedure to obtain this ticket depends on the Kerberos libraries being used. For
additional information, refer to the vendor documentation.
Explanation of Results
- Ticket cache – tells you which file contains your credentials cache.
- Default principal – is the login of the person who owns the TGT (in this case, you).
- Valid starting/Expires/Service principal – the remainder of the output is a list of your existing tickets. Because this is the
first ticket you have requested, there is only one ticket listed. The service
principal (krbtgt/YOUR.REALM@YOUR.REALM) shows that this ticket is a
TGT. Note that this ticket is good for approximately 8 hours.
