--use-kerberos=auto

  Check for a credential cache and try to authenticate. If it fails ask for a
  password for the user who executed the client tool.

  -U check for a ticket of that user, if not available ask for a password

--use-kerberos=yes

  Use the credential cache

  -U use the credential cache and check for a ticket for that user

--use-kerberos=no

  ask for a password for the user who executed the client tool

  -U ask for a password for the given user or use the one supplied on the
     commandline


Makes sense?

Comments welcome.
