Hi, I am trying to understand how gss_acquire_cred works.
When trying gss_server and gss_client - sample programs : When gss_server run as user root the gss_acquire_cred function executes without any errors. (The service principal key is added to the keytab file) When I execute gss_server as another other user I get the following error "server_acquire_creds: sample server_acquire_creds: calling gss_acquire_credGSS-API error acquiring credentials: Miscellaneous failure GSS-API error acquiring credentials: Permission denied" My understanding is gss_acquire_cred tries to get the default credential from credential cache. How does gss_server as user root is able to execute gss_acquire_cred function without any cred in credential cache. What is problem when executing gss_server as anyother user ?
