panel to choose which information is displayed for your tickets. Use
the Ticket Options panel to turn MIT Kerberos's automatic features on
or off. </p>

<p>
Click the Options tab at the top of the ribbon menu and look to the
left to find the View Options panel. View Options control which ticket information columns are displayed in the main window.</p>
<p>
Select a checkbox to show the information column in the main window.
Deselect it to hide the column. Some options are selected by default.
For example, "Valid Until" is selected by default, so the main window
shows the Valid Until column showing when your tickets will expire. <br>

Kerberos <em>realms</em> are a way of logically grouping resources and identities that use Kerberos.
By convention, realm names use all upper case letters. This helps
distinguish a realm from the DNS domain it corresponds to. Realm names
are case sensitive. So for convenience, anything you enter in the realm
field of the Get Ticket window is converted to upper case, unless you
turn this option on. </td></tr>
