Kerberos is an authentication service that issues a ticket when a user logs on to a particular server. It then passes the ticket on to other servers so that the user does not have to log on seperately in each domain. By repeatedly connecting to the Kerberos service and then disconnecting before the socket is read, a denial of service attack may be effected.
