When a user logs in through SSH, SSH sets up an environment that is different from the environment that the user gets when they log in using other means such as rlogin, telnet, or by direct login. To verify that that kadmin is visible in the SSH environment, log in to SSH interactively using openssh or PuTTy.

Do either of the following depending on whether you want to verify that kadmin is visible in the SSH environment using openssh or PuTTy:
- (openssh) On the SSH server host, open a Command Prompt window and enter the following command:
```
ssh -i <private key file> <SSH user>@<SSH host>
```
  The shell prompt appears.
  
  Enter the following command:
```
which kadmin
```
  The full path of kadmin appears. For example, /usr/sbin/kadmin.
  
  If the full path of kadmin does not appear, see How to make kadmin visible.
- (PuTTy) Establish a session to the SSH server, and specify the SSH server hostname, login account, and private key file using the PuTTy Configuration dialog.
  On the PuTTy Configuration dialog, click Open.
  
  The terminal emulator opens with a shell prompt.
  
  Enter the following command:
```
which kadmin
```
  The full path of kadmin appears. For example, /usr/sbin/kadmin.
  
  If the full path of kadmin does not appear, see How to make kadmin visible.
