Hi all,
  Can someone please guide me in understanding the use of the function 
gss_krb5_ccache_name?
   
  I have a user name and password for a specific user and want to generate a 
temporary ticket for the user (whcih i store in the memory) and then swicth the 
context to that ticket and then acquire the credentials for the user (using 
gss_acquire_cred call - which i can modify to handle memory based tickets). 
   
  Thanks a lot for all the help in advance.
   
  Best Regards,
  Sayali

Those are the principals for machine or computer accounts.
