Kerberos Ticket Autorenewal

Keeps Kerberos tickets always actual by automatically refreshing them using the saved password.

Kerberos is commonly used in corporate environments as a mechanism behind Single Sign-On (SSO) which allows to use intranet resources without entering password every time.

FEATURES:

• Automatic Ticket Renewal — if a ticket expires (or disappears for any reason) the app will instantly get another one using the password saved in Keychain.

• If you choose not to save any password for the ticket, the app will still use passwordless renewal (`kinit -R`) when possible, keeping the ticket actual until maximum renewable lifetime of the ticket runs out.

• Changing Expired Password — displays notification when Kerberos password expires and allows to change it.

• Multiple tickets can be maintained.

• Can optionally prevent others apps from changing the default ticket.

NOTE: If you plan to delete tickets (`kdestroy` etc), make sure to disable autorenewal first, otherwise this app will just instantly reinstate them.
