kinit programming

[Tim Alsop]

Hi,

I suspect they used static linking so that the required Kerberos protocol functions are included in the binary instead of using dynamic linking, so that it calls a shared library such as libkrb during execution.

BTW. Our Application Security products provide an implementation og GSSAPI v2 and also include additional functions for application security, these include functions for acquiring initial credentials. See http://www.cybersafe.ltd.uk/menu_prodsolserv/products/products_appsec_sdk.htm for more details.

Thanks, Tim.

anybody has any idea how the Solaris implemented SEAM's kinit? its
weird because solaris doesn't have the libkrb? or at least the kinit
doesn't seem to be using it. so it means it is using the libgss ones
but it is stated that gss api doesn't handle initial credentials.

any thoughts people.

thanks
