Name
delprinc — Deleting principals
Synopsis
delprinc principal-name
Aliases
delete_principal
The delprinc command
deletes a principal from the Kerberos database. Note that deleting
a principal does not automatically delete it from access control
lists in which it appears. If a principal is added with the same
name as one that is deleted, the new principal inherits all of the
privileges of the old principal.
The delprinc command
requires that the administrator have the D permission on the principal he is
deleting.
Example
kadmin: delprinc jdoe Are you sure you want to delete the principal "jdoe@WEDGIE.ORG"? (yes/no): yes Principal "jdoe@WEDGIE.ORG" deleted. Make sure that you have removed this principal from all ACLs before reusing.
