Hi @rizalt 

The error is because you have not provided keytab path here the command should look like below:

> klist -k example.keytab

To create the keytab you can refer any of below steps:

$ ktutil
ktutil:  addent -password -p myusername@FEDORAPROJECT.ORG -k 42 -f
Password for myusername@FEDORAPROJECT.ORG:
ktutil:  wkt /tmp/kt/fedora.keytab
ktutil:  q

Then
kinit -kt /tmp/kt/fedora.keytab myusername@FEDORAPROJECT.ORG

Note: Replace the username and REALM as per your cluster configurations.
