KRB_SET_TKT_STRING(3)                       KRB_SET_TKT_STRING(3)


NAME
       krb_set_tkt_string - set Kerberos ticket cache file name



SYNOPSIS
       #include <kerberosIV/krb.h>

       void krb_set_tkt_string(filename)
       char *filename;

DESCRIPTION
       krb_set_tkt_string  sets  the  name of the file that holds
       the user's cache of Kerberos server tickets and associated
       session keys.

       The  string  filename passed in is copied into local stor-
       age.  Only MAXPATHLEN-1 (see <sys/param.h>) characters  of
       the filename are copied in for use as the cache file name.

       This  routine  should  be  called  during  initialization,
       before  other  Kerberos routines are called; otherwise the
       routines which fetch the ticket cache  file  name  may  be
       called and return an undesired ticket file name until this
       routine is called.

FILES
       /tmp/tkt[uid]       default ticket file name,  unless  the
                           environment variable KRBTKFILE is set.
                           [uid] denotes the user's uid, in deci-
                           mal.
