I'm not sure about a recipe, but the the "kinit" man page trivially explains how to get a password from a stashed location, and also explains how to specifies how to set the lifetime of the requested ticket. So, you just run kinit in cron as the specified daemon user with the appropriate flags and it will renew its own tickets and all is well. I'm not sure why people think this is all so mysterious. Can you explain what is hard about this? > The canonical tool for daemonic use is > <URL:http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/kstart/>, but it's probably > not so useful for jobs in a batch system. Why bother when kinit will do the job? That's what it is for.
