GSS-API is described in RFC 2743 which is also the most complete answer for that question, please see: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2743.txt > 2) Is it possible via GSS-API for an applciation server to "cache" a > public key for a Ticket granting authority and conduct "is authentic" > checks on native authorization tickets it receives? I don't think there are APIs to do that in GSS-API today, but I may be wrong -- I haven't used certificate-based mechanisms with GSS-API. /Simon > Vilas > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Simon Josefsson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2008 7:31 PM > To: Tadoori (EXT), Vilas > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: GSS-API Documentation and help > > GNU GSS is currently only distributed as a source code package, so there > are no binary Windows packages available.
