KRB5_GET_KRBHST(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual KRB5_GET_KRBHST(3)
NAME
krb5_get_krbhst, krb5_get_krb_admin_hst, krb5_get_krb_changepw_hst,
krb5_get_krb524hst, krb5_free_krbhst - lookup Kerberos KDC hosts
LIBRARY
Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)
SYNOPSIS
#include <krb5.h>
krb5_error_code
krb5_get_krbhst(krb5_context context, const krb5_realm *realm,
char ***hostlist);
krb5_error_code
krb5_get_krb_admin_hst(krb5_context context, const krb5_realm *realm,
char ***hostlist);
krb5_error_code
krb5_get_krb_changepw_hst(krb5_context context, const krb5_realm *realm,
char ***hostlist);
krb5_error_code
krb5_get_krb524hst(krb5_context context, const krb5_realm *realm,
char ***hostlist);
krb5_error_code
krb5_free_krbhst(krb5_context context, char **hostlist);
DESCRIPTION
These functions implement the old API to get a list of Kerberos hosts,
and are thus similar to the krb5_krbhst_init() functions. However, since
these functions returns all hosts in one go, they potentially have to do
more lookups than necessary. These functions remain for compatibility
reasons.
After a call to one of these functions, hostlist is a NULL terminated
list of strings, pointing to the requested Kerberos hosts. These should
be freed with krb5_free_krbhst() when done with.
EXAMPLES
The following code will print the KDCs of the realm "MY.REALM".
char **hosts, **p;
krb5_get_krbhst(context, "MY.REALM", &hosts);
for(p = hosts; *p; p++)
printf("%s\n", *p);
krb5_free_krbhst(context, hosts);
