✨ SCLIENT 💅

okay bestie, welcome to sclient — the sample Kerberos version 5 client, MIT Kerberos girlie edition 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

sclient — a sample Kerberos version 5 client 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

sclient remotehost

that's it. one whole argument. we love a low-maintenance icon 💅

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so sclient is a sample application — like, it is primarily useful for testing purposes, no cap. it's not out here running your whole infrastructure, it's the little demo bestie that exists so you can check things work 🧚

here's the whole vibe: it reaches out and contacts a sample server called sserver, and it authenticates to it using Kerberos version 5 tickets 🎟️✨ then, once the handshake is done and everyone's on good terms, it displays the server's response.

that's the entire plot. short, sweet, iconic. periodt 💅

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

okay so for the environment variables — head over to kerberos, because that page has the whole description of the Kerberos environment variables 💜 don't make me retype it, the info lives there, fr fr.
