Example of Accessing a Directory With Kerberos Authentication

In the following example, user jjones can change to the mounted mntkrb directory and list the files in this directory.

The kerbd daemon has automatically secured a ticket on the user's behalf for the NFS server exporting the file system. At this point there are two valid tickets--the original ticket-granting ticket, and the server ticket. These two tickets are listed by klist.

earth% cd /mntkrb
earth% ls -l /mntkrb
