Hi Sayali,

I don't think there is a good way, you could try either of these:

strings `type -a kinit | head -1` | less

or

strings `type -a kpasswd | head -1` | less

You have to manually look at the strings displayed in your less screen. 
MIT kerberos usually has at least krb5_MIT on one of the lines. I have 
no idea what you would see with other vendors.

  Good Luck,

Jeremy
