Right, but there are also interfaces that are intended for public use that can only be found by looking at the source. For instance, when I looked at the source to some of the Kerberos applications in the standard distribution, I found no one uses krb5_get_in_tkt() or any of its variants anymore. Instead, applications generally use the newer, but undocumented krb5_get_init_creds_password(). Given that many of the commonly used functions like krb5_get_init_creds_password are totally undocumented, newbies, like me, HAVE to read the source, or risk using an older and possibly deprecated interface.
Ideally, you wouldn't use the KRB5 APIs at all, you would use GSSAPI instead - it is standard and portable across implementations and platforms. -Wyllys ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
