Kerberos Authentication c/c++

I am in the process of developing a application that needs to be able to authenticate users details with a kerberos server, which is proving to be rather difficult. There seems to be a lack of good information on how to do this using the MIT kerberos api.

Can anyone point me in the right direction ?

Regards

NAME
CURLOPT_KRBLEVEL - set FTP kerberos security level SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_KRBLEVEL, char *level); DESCRIPTION
Pass a char * as parameter. Set the kerberos security level for FTP; this also enables kerberos awareness. This is a string that should match one of the following: 'clear', 'safe', 'confidential' or 'private'. If the string is set but doesn't match one of these, 'private' will be used. Set the string to NULL to disable kerberos support for FTP. The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option. DEFAULT
