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).

Like a classics radio station whose play list spans decades, Unix simultaneously exhibits its mixed and dated heritage. There's Clash-era graphics interfaces; Beatles-era two-letter command names; and systems programs (for example, ps) whose terse and obscure output was designed for slow teletypes; Bing Crosby-era command editing (# and @ are still the default line editing commands), and Scott Joplin-era core dumps.
