Quoth [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Klaas Hagemann): ... | after doing kinit the kerberos client creates a krb5 ticket cache file | like /tmp/krb5cc_506. | | Another user having root privileges on this client can optain these | ticket cache file and have the network wide rights of the owner of this | ticket. | | Is there any chance that the ticket is stored in memory rather than on | the local disk? can i configure it in any way?
Yes! Try this: $ KRB5CCNAME=MEMORY:0 kinit Password for [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Now look for your credentials in /tmp, and they won't be there. They won't be anywhere else either, they're just gone, along with the kinit process that owned that storage, but that would be what you wanted.
