Returns:

Returns 0 to indicate success. Otherwise an errno code is returned. Failure means either that something bad happened during initialization (typically ENOMEM) or that Kerberos should not be used ENXIO.

Returns an the struct addrinfo in in that corresponds to the information in `host'. free:ing is handled by krb5_krbhst_free, so the returned ai must not be released.

First try this as an IP address, this allows us to add a dot at the end to stop using the search domains.

If the hostname contains a dot, assumes it's a FQDN and don't use search domains since that might be painfully slow when machine is disconnected from that network.

Enable and disable home directory access on either the global state or the krb5_context state. By calling krb5_set_home_dir_access() with context set to NULL, the global state is configured otherwise the state for the krb5_context is modified.

For home directory access to be allowed, both the global state and the krb5_context state have to be allowed.

Administrator (root user), never uses the home directory.

Parameters:

context a Kerberos 5 context or NULL
allow allow if TRUE home directory

Returns:

the old value

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_set_ignore_addresses (krb5_context context, const krb5_addresses * addresses)

Set extra addresses to ignore when fetching addresses from the underlaying operating system.

Parameters:

context Kerberos 5 context.
addresses addreses to ignore

Returns:

Returns 0 to indicate success. Otherwise an kerberos et error code is returned, see krb5_get_error_message().

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_set_kdc_sec_offset (krb5_context context, int32_t sec, int32_t usec)

Set current offset in time to the KDC.

Parameters:

context Kerberos 5 context.
sec seconds part of offset.
usec micro seconds part of offset.

Returns:

returns zero

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION void KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_set_max_time_skew (krb5_context context, time_t t)

Set max time skew allowed.

Parameters:

context Kerberos 5 context.
t timeskew in seconds.

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_set_password (krb5_context context, krb5_creds * creds, const char * newpw, krb5_principal targprinc, int * result_code, krb5_data * result_code_string, krb5_data * result_string)

Change password using creds.

Parameters:

context a Keberos context
creds The initial kadmin/passwd for the principal or an admin principal
newpw The new password to set
targprinc if unset, the default principal is used.
result_code Result code, KRB5_KPASSWD_SUCCESS is when password is changed.
result_code_string binary message from the server, contains at least the result_code.
result_string A message from the kpasswd service or the library in human printable form. The string is NUL terminated.

Returns:

On sucess and *result_code is KRB5_KPASSWD_SUCCESS, the password is changed.

@

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_set_real_time (krb5_context context, krb5_timestamp sec, int32_t usec)

Set the absolute time that the caller knows the kdc has so the kerberos library can calculate the relative diffrence beteen the KDC time and local system time.

Parameters:

context Keberos 5 context.
sec The applications new of 'now' in seconds
usec The applications new of 'now' in micro seconds

Returns:

Kerberos 5 error code, see krb5_get_error_message().

If the caller passes in a negative usec, its assumed to be unknown and the function will use the current time usec.

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION void KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_set_use_admin_kdc (krb5_context context, krb5_boolean flag)

Make the kerberos library default to the admin KDC.

Parameters:

context Kerberos 5 context.
flag boolean flag to select if the use the admin KDC or not.

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_ticket_get_authorization_data_type (krb5_context context, krb5_ticket * ticket, int type, krb5_data * data)

Extract the authorization data type of type from the ticket. Store the field in data. This function is to use for kerberos applications.

Parameters:

context a Kerberos 5 context
ticket Kerberos ticket
type type to fetch
data returned data, free with krb5_data_free()

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_ticket_get_client (krb5_context context, const krb5_ticket * ticket, krb5_principal * client)

Return client principal in ticket

Parameters:

context a Kerberos 5 context
ticket ticket to copy
client client principal, free with krb5_free_principal()

Returns:

Returns 0 to indicate success. Otherwise an kerberos et error code is returned, see krb5_get_error_message().

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION time_t KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_ticket_get_endtime (krb5_context context, const krb5_ticket * ticket)

Return end time of ticket

Parameters:

context a Kerberos 5 context
ticket ticket to copy

Returns:

end time of ticket

KRB5_LIB_FUNCTION krb5_error_code KRB5_LIB_CALL krb5_ticket_get_server (krb5_context context, const krb5_ticket * ticket, krb5_principal * server)

Return server principal in ticket

Parameters:

context a Kerberos 5 context
ticket ticket to copy
server server principal, free with krb5_free_principal()

Returns:

Returns 0 to indicate success. Otherwise an kerberos et error code is returned, see krb5_get_error_message().

Our grievance is not just against Unix itself, but against the cult of Unix zealots who defend and nurture it. They take the heat, disease, and pestilence as givens, and, as ancient shamans did, display their wounds, some self-inflicted, as proof of their power and wizardry. We aim, through bluntness and humor, to show them that they pray to a tin god, and that science, not religion, is the path to useful and friendly technology.
