krb5_get_credentials, krb5_get_credentials_with_flags, krb5_get_kdc_cred, krb5_get_renewed_creds — get credentials from the KDC using krbtgtLIBRARY¶

#include <krb5.h> krb5_error_codekrb5_get_credentials(krb5_context context, krb5_flags options, 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 expired, 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.
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; }
