How to prevent very very large ccaches?

[Nicolas.Williams@ubsw.com]

If you ssh/krsh/whatever to many remote nodes you end up with
as many new service tickets in your ccache.

So far as I can see there is no way to tell libkrb5 to not
bother storing anything but TGTs and xrealm TGTs in the ccache.

Such a feature is needed.

Yes, one can always copy the current ccache and set KRB5CCNAME
in the environment of the ssh/krsh/whatever and then kdestroy
all those ccache copies. But come on, there has to be a better
way.

Or am I missing something?

Thoughts?
