KRB5_APPDEFAULT(3)					   BSD Library Functions Manual 					KRB5_APPDEFAULT(3)

NAME

     krb5_appdefault_boolean, krb5_appdefault_string, krb5_appdefault_time -- get application configuration value

LIBRARY

     Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <krb5.h>

     void
     krb5_appdefault_boolean(krb5_context context, const char *appname, krb5_realm realm, const char *option, krb5_boolean def_val,
	 krb5_boolean *ret_val);

     void
     krb5_appdefault_string(krb5_context context, const char *appname, krb5_realm realm, const char *option, const char *def_val, char **ret_val);

     void
     krb5_appdefault_time(krb5_context context, const char *appname, krb5_realm realm, const char *option, time_t def_val, time_t *ret_val);

DESCRIPTION

     These functions get application defaults from the appdefaults section of the krb5.conf(5) configuration file. These defaults can be specified
     per application, and/or per realm.

     These values will be looked for in krb5.conf(5), in order of descending importance.

	   [appdefaults]
		   appname = {
			   realm = {
				   option = value
			   }
		   }
		   appname = {
			   option = value
		   }
		   realm = {
			   option = value
		   }
		   option = value
     appname is the name of the application, and realm is the realm name. If the realm is omitted it will not be used for resolving values.
     def_val is the value to return if no value is found in krb5.conf(5).
