NAME

     krb5_check_transited, krb5_check_transited_realms,
     krb5_domain_x500_decode, krb5_domain_x500_encode - realm transit
     verification 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);

DESCRIPTION

     krb5_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.
