kas_delete - Deletes an entry from the Authentication Database
kas delete -name <name of user> [-admin_username <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-password_for_admin <admin password>] [-cell <cell name>] [-servers <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-noauth] [-help]
kas d -na <name of user> [-a <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-p <admin password>] [-c <cell name>] [-s <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-no] [-h]
kas rm -na <name of user> [-a <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-p <admin password>] [-c <cell name>] [-s <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-no] [-h]
The kas delete command removes from the Authentication Database the user entry named by the -name argument. The indicated user becomes unable to log in, or the indicated server becomes unreachable (because the Authentication Server's Ticket Granting Service module no longer has a key with which to seal tickets for the server).

Specifies the user identity under which to authenticate with the Authentication Server for execution of the command. For more details, see kas(8).

Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see kas(8).
Names each machine running an Authentication Server with which to establish a connection. For more details, see kas(8).
Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer.
For more details,
see kas(8).
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
