KRB5_GET_CREDENTIALS(3)      Library Functions Manual	 KRB5_GET_CREDENTIALS(3)

NAME
     krb5_get_credentials,  krb5_get_credentials_with_flags,  krb5_get_kdc_cred,
     krb5_get_renewed_creds -- get credentials from the KDC using krbtgt

LIBRARY
     Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <krb5.h>

     krb5_error_code
     krb5_get_credentials(krb5_context context, krb5_flags options,
	 krb5_ccache ccache, krb5_creds *in_creds, krb5_creds **out_creds);

     krb5_error_code
     krb5_get_credentials_with_flags(krb5_context context, krb5_flags options,
	 krb5_kdc_flags flags, krb5_ccache ccache, krb5_creds *in_creds,
	 krb5_creds **out_creds);

     krb5_error_code
     krb5_get_kdc_cred(krb5_context context, krb5_ccache id,
	 krb5_kdc_flags flags, krb5_addresses *addresses, Ticket *second_ticket,
	 krb5_creds *in_creds, krb5_creds **out_creds);

     krb5_error_code
     krb5_get_renewed_creds(krb5_context context, krb5_creds *creds,
	 krb5_const_principal client, krb5_ccache ccache,
	 const char *in_tkt_service);

DESCRIPTION
     krb5_get_credentials_with_flags()	  get	 credentials	specified     by
     in_creds->server  and  in_creds->client (the rest of the in_creds structure
     is ignored) by first looking in the ccache and if doesn't exists or is  ex-
     pired,  fetch  the credential from the KDC using the krbtgt in ccache.  The
     credential is returned in out_creds and should be freed using the	function
     krb5_free_creds().

     Valid flags to pass into options argument are:

     KRB5_GC_CACHED	 Only  check  the  ccache,  don't  got out on network to
			 fetch credential.
     KRB5_GC_USER_USER	 Request a user to user  ticket.   This  option  doesn't
			 store	the  resulting	user  to  user credential in the
			 ccache.
     KRB5_GC_EXPIRED_OK  returns the credential even if it is  expired,  default
			 behavior  is  trying to refetch the credential from the
			 KDC.

     Flags are KDCOptions, note the caller must fill in the  bit-field	and  not
     use the integer associated structure.

     krb5_get_credentials()    works	the   same   way   as	krb5_get_creden-
     tials_with_flags() except that the flags field is missing.

     krb5_get_kdc_cred() does the same as the functions above,	but  the  caller
     must fill in all the information andits closer to the wire protocol.

     krb5_get_renewed_creds()  renews  a  credential given by in_tkt_service (if
     NULL the default krbtgt) using the credential cache ccache.  The result  is
     stored in creds and should be freed using krb5_free_creds.

EXAMPLES
     Here is a example function that get a credential from a credential cache id
     or the KDC and returns it to the caller.

     #include <krb5.h>

     int
     getcred(krb5_context context, krb5_ccache id, krb5_creds **creds)
     {
	 krb5_error_code ret;
	 krb5_creds in;

	 ret = krb5_parse_name(context, "client@EXAMPLE.COM",
			       &in.client);
	 if (ret)
	     krb5_err(context, 1, ret, "krb5_parse_name");

	 ret = krb5_parse_name(context, "host/server.example.com@EXAMPLE.COM",
			       &in.server);
	 if (ret)
	     krb5_err(context, 1, ret, "krb5_parse_name");

	 ret = krb5_get_credentials(context, 0, id, &in, creds);
	 if (ret)
	     krb5_err(context, 1, ret, "krb5_get_credentials");

	 return 0;
     }
