Check Status: Displays ticket details like expiration times, client/server names, and encryption types.
Clear Cache: Deletes or purges cached tickets to fix authentication errors.
Manage Keytabs: Lists keys in a local keytab file on Linux/Unix systems. [1, 2, 3]

Common Commands

klist — Lists the default active Kerberos tickets.
klist purge — Deletes cached tickets (useful for resolving "Access Denied" or login issues on Windows).
klist -e — Displays tickets with their encryption details.
klist -k — Displays entries from a keytab file (Unix/Linux). [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
