The dfsgw add command can be used to refresh DCE credentials. If they are not refreshed, DCE credentials (tickets) expire after the lifetime specified by the DCE Security Service. After they expire, the tickets can no longer be used for authenticated access. To end an authenticated session before the ticket lifetime has passed, you can issue either of the following commands: v From the NFS client from which authenticated access to DFS is provided, enter the dfs_logout command. - Page 30 TGT, so the command prompts for the user’s password and obtains a TGT for the user.

To end the authenticated session before the DCE credentials expire, issue the dfs_logout command from the NFS client. The command removes the user’s entry from the authentication table on the Gateway Server machine. The command can be issued either by the user whose entry is to be removed from the authentication table or by a user who is logged into the NFS client as the local superuser root. -

The command contacts the DCE Security Service to obtain a TGT for the user. To obtain a TGT, a user must have a valid account in the registry database of the DCE cell. The TGT is used to create a valid login context for the user.

The dfsgwd process runs on machines configured as DFS clients to enable remote authentication via the dfs_login command. The dfsgwd process works with the dfs_login command to obtain DCE credentials for users of NFS clients. The DCE credentials provide users with authenticated access to data in DFS.
