Hi, In our case we use the api's to control the client action. Setup :- we maintain the conf files according to the realm names.
1. In normal scenario we call krb5_get_init_creds_opt_alloc and krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_forwardable to set the kerberos flags 2. Similarly called krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_pa(k5->ctx, options, "X509_anchors", "FILE:/home/product/code/config/certificates/cacert.pem" ); krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_pa(k5->ctx, options, "X509_user_identity", "FILE:/home/product/code/config/certificates/client.pem,/home/product/code/config/certificates/clientkey.pem"); krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_pa(k5->ctx, options, "flag_RSA_PROTOCOL", "yes"); The above data was stored in the conf file. My question is what ever i am doing is the correct procedure? Please do guide me in this. Best Regards, B.Sasikumar.

Read the tutorial for PKINIT options in MIT site and need to know what API's can be used to achieve PKINIT in client application. Normally, a client application doesn't need to use any APIs to make PKINIT work; all you have to do is configure the client and KDC appropriately using krb5.conf. If you have a specific need to control PKINIT behavior from the application, you can create a krb5_get_init_creds_opt object with krb5_get_init_creds_opt_alloc and set PKINIT-specific attributes with krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_pa. The attributes you can set this way are described in the kinit man page under the description of the -X attribute (so X509_user_identity, X509_anchors, and flag_RSA_PROTOCOL). You may also need to refer to the krb5.conf man page where it talks about the pkinit_identities and pkinit_anchors variables. ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
