KRB5_CHECK_TRANSITED(3) BSD Library Functions Manual KRB5_CHECK_TRANSITED(3)NAME
krb5_check_transited, krb5_check_transited_realms,
krb5_domain_x500_decode, krb5_domain_x500_encode — realm transit verifi‐
cation and encoding/decoding functions
LIBRARY
Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)
SYNOPSIS
#include <krb5.h>
krb5_error_code
krb5_check_transited(krb5_context context, krb5_const_realm client_realm,
krb5_const_realm server_realm, krb5_realm *realms, int num_realms,
int *bad_realm);
krb5_error_code
krb5_check_transited_realms(krb5_context context,
const char *const *realms, int num_realms, int *bad_realm);
krb5_error_code
krb5_domain_x500_decode(krb5_context context, krb5_data tr,
char ***realms, int *num_realms, const char *client_realm,
const char *server_realm);
krb5_error_code
krb5_domain_x500_encode(char **realms, int num_realms,
krb5_data *encoding);
DESCRIPTIONkrb5_check_transited() checks the path from client_realm to server_realm
where realms and num_realms is the realms between them. If the function
returns an error value, bad_realm will be set to the realm in the list
causing the error. krb5_check_transited() is used internally by the KDC
and libkrb5 and should not be called by client applications.
krb5_check_transited_realms() is deprecated.
krb5_domain_x500_encode() and krb5_domain_x500_decode() encodes and
decodes the realm names in the X500 format that Kerberos uses to describe
the transited realms in krbtgts.
