I've tried to use sserver example (K5 API) along with gss-client example and it fails at context initialization. At one step, the client has sent tokens and wait for the server to reply. The server runs krb5_recvauth but this function never returns, data sent by the client not being in the right format i suppose. I guess this is not supposed to work Is it the answer to my question, that K5 API and GSS-API are not compatible ?
