krb5_verify_user() is a function in the Heimdal implementation of Kerberos, but is not present in MIT krb5. Upon cursory examination, it seems that krb5_get_init_creds_password() and krb5_verify_init_creds() together might be a suitable replacement. Note that it requires the caller to have access to a service keytab (and the principal name must be specified if it is not host/<localhost>). -Ben ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
