Disable Kerberos TGT Expiration Warning

LowLevel 1Automatedsolaris

Description

The Kerberos TGT warning service is used to warn users when their Kerberos tickets are about to expire or to renew those tickets before they expire. This service is not used if Kerberos has not been configured. This service is configured to be "local only" by default. This service should be disabled if it is not required. Audit: `svcs -Ho state` must report disabled or uninitialized; a service that is not installed is compliant.

How it is checked

Audit method: Shell command

shell
command -v svcs >/dev/null 2>&1 || exit 1; r=compliant; for f in svc:/network/security/ktkt_warn; do st=$(svcs -Ho state "$f" 2>/dev/null); case "$st" in ''|disabled|uninitialized) ;; *) r="$f: $st";; esac; done; echo "$r"
Expected output
compliant

How it is fixed

Fix method: Guidance or infrastructure patch

svcadm disable svc:/network/security/ktkt_warn
