	 krb5_const_realm realm);

DESCRIPTION
     k_hasafs()  initializes some library internal structures, and tests for the
     presence of AFS in the kernel, none of the other functions should be called
     before k_hasafs() is called, or if it fails.

     k_hasafs_recheck() forces a recheck if a AFS client has started since  last
     time k_hasafs() or k_hasafs_recheck() was called.

     kafs_set_verbose()  set  a  log  function that will be called each time the
     kafs library does something important so that the application using libkafs
     can output verbose logging.  Calling the function kafs_set_verbose with the
     function argument set to NULL will stop libkafs from  calling  the  logging
     function (if set).

     kafs_settoken_rxkad()  set  rxkad	with the token and ticket (that have the
     length ticket_len) for a given cell.

     kafs_settoken() and kafs_settoken5()  work  the  same  way  as  kafs_setto-
     ken_rxkad() but internally converts the Kerberos 4 or 5 credential to a afs
     cleartoken and ticket.

     krb_afslog(),  and  krb_afslog_uid() obtains new tokens (and possibly tick-
     ets) for the specified cell and realm.  If cell is NULL, the local cell  is
     used.  If realm is NULL, the function tries to guess what realm to use. Un-
     less you  have some good knowledge of what cell or realm to use, you should
     pass NULL.  krb_afslog() will use the real user-id for the ViceId field  in
     the token, krb_afslog_uid() will use uid.

     krb5_afslog(),  and  krb5_afslog_uid()  are  the  Kerberos 5 equivalents of
     krb_afslog(), and krb_afslog_uid().

     krb5_afslog(), kafs_settoken5() can be configured to behave differently via
     a krb5_appdefault option afs-use-524 in  krb5.conf.   Possible  values  for
     afs-use-524 are:

     yes    use the 524 server in the realm to convert the ticket

     no     use the Kerberos 5 ticket directly, can be used with if the afs cell
	    support 2b token.

     local, 2b
	    convert  the  Kerberos  5 credential to a 2b token locally (the same
	    work as a 2b 524 server should have done).

     Example:

     [appdefaults]
	     SU.SE = { afs-use-524 = local }
	     PDC.KTH.SE = { afs-use-524 = yes }
	     afs-use-524 = yes

     libkafs  will  use  the  libkafs  as  application	name  when  running  the
     krb5_appdefault function call.

     The  (uppercased)	cell  name  is	used as the realm to the krb5_appdefault
     function.

     k_afs_cell_of_file() will in cell return the cell of a specified  file,  no
     more than len characters is put in cell.

     k_pioctl()  does  a pioctl() system call with the specified arguments. This
     function is equivalent to lpioctl().

     k_setpag() initializes a new PAG.

     k_unlog() removes destroys all tokens in the current PAG.

RETURN VALUES
     k_hasafs() returns 1 if AFS is present in the kernel, 0 otherwise.  krb_af-
     slog() and krb_afslog_uid() returns 0 on success, or a Kerberos error  num-
     ber  on  failure.	 k_afs_cell_of_file(), k_pioctl(), k_setpag(), and k_un-
     log() all return the value of the underlaying system call, 0 on success.

ENVIRONMENT
     The following environment variable affect the mode of operation of kafs:

     AFS_SYSCALL  Normally, kafs will try  to  figure  out  the  correct  system
		  call(s) that are used by AFS by itself.  If it does not manage
		  to  do that, or does it incorrectly, you can set this variable
		  to the system call number or list of system call numbers  that
		  should be used.

EXAMPLES
     The  following code from login will obtain a new PAG and tokens for the lo-
     cal cell and the cell of the users home directory.

     if (k_hasafs()) {
	     char cell[64];
	     k_setpag();
	     if(k_afs_cell_of_file(pwd->pw_dir, cell, sizeof(cell)) == 0)
		     krb_afslog(cell, NULL);
	     krb_afslog(NULL, NULL);
     }

ERRORS
     If any of these functions (apart from k_hasafs()) is called without AFS be-
     ing present in the kernel, the process will usually (depending on the oper-
     ating system) receive a SIGSYS signal.

FILES
     libkafs will search for ThisCell and TheseCells in the following locations:
     /usr/vice/etc, /etc/openafs, /var/db/openafs/etc, /usr/arla/etc, /etc/arla,
     and /etc/afs

BUGS
     AFS_SYSCALL has no effect under AIX.
