I am not too keen this idea at all.... I've never been a fan of
added command line arguments for this purpose... Plus there
is no man page update... Also please post patches in-line
the email not as email attachments...
If commit 2c64348 which causes the process to hang when
its kerberos ticket expires is a regression... then so
be it... lets revert that commit and have the process error
out with EPERM.... It sounds like the apps would rather
have the error than the hanging...
I think the answer to all this is have the ticket
renewed before it expires. There is a daemon call sssd
that is part of the FreeIPA project that will supposedly
do that for us... I'm looking into it...
