NAME

krb5_appdefault_boolean, krb5_appdefault_string, krb5_appdefault_time – get application configuration value

CONTENTS

LIBRARY

Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)

SYNOPSIS

#include <krb5.h>

void
krb5_appdefault_boolean(krb5_context context, const char *appname, krb5_realm realm, const char *option, krb5_boolean def_val, krb5_boolean *ret_val);

void
krb5_appdefault_string(krb5_context context, const char *appname, krb5_realm realm, const char *option, const char *def_val, char **ret_val);

void
krb5_appdefault_time(krb5_context context, const char *appname, krb5_realm realm, const char *option, time_t def_val, time_t *ret_val);

DESCRIPTION

These functions get application defaults from the appdefaults section of the krb5.conf(5) configuration file. These defaults can be specified per application, and/or per realm.

These values will be looked for in krb5.conf(5), in order of descending importance. 

[appdefaults]
        appname = {
                realm = {
                        option = value
                }
        }
        appname = {
                option = value
        }
        realm = {
                option = value
        }
        option = value
appname is the name of the application, and realm is the realm name. If the realm is omitted it will not be used for resolving values. def_val is the value to return if no value is found in krb5.conf(5).

“ "I liken starting one's computing career with Unix, say as an undergraduate, to being born in East Africa. It is intolerably hot, your body is covered with lice and flies, you are malnourished and you suffer from numerous curable diseases. But, as far as young East Africans can tell, this is simply the natural condition and they live within it. By the time they find out differently, it is too late. They already think that the writing of shell scripts is a natural act." ”
