How to login from KTH UBUNTU computers¶
KTH Ubuntu already has the necessary software and configuration in place, but the command are working a bit differently so that users can access both their KTH and PDC home folder.
Most kerberos and ssh commands have a special script starting with pdc- Please not that the PDC password is different from the KTH password.
To acquire a Kerberos ticket
pdc-kinit
You can see what active tickets you have by
pdc-klist -f
The output of this command should look something like
Credentials cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_2140015_BcRCkm.pdc
Default principal: <your-username>@NADA.KTH.SE
