DESCRIPTION

These functions get values from the krb5.conf(5) configuration file, or another configuration database specified by the c parameter.

The variable arguments should be a list of strings naming each subsection to look for. For example:

krb5_config_get_bool_default(context, NULL, FALSE,
"libdefaults", "log_utc", NULL);

gets the boolean value for the log_utc option, defaulting to FALSE.

krb5_config_get_bool_default() will convert the option value to a boolean value, where ’yes’, ’true’, and any non-zero number means TRUE, and any other value FALSE.

krb5_config_get_int_default() will convert the value to an integer.

krb5_config_get_time_default() will convert the value to a period of time (not a time stamp) in seconds, so the string ’2 weeks’ will be converted to 1209600 (2 * 7 * 24 * 60 * 60).

krb5_config_free_strings() free strings as returned by krb5_config_get_strings() and krb5_config_vget_strings().

krb5_config_file_free() free the result of krb5_config_parse_file() and krb5_config_parse_file_multi.

BUGS

For the default functions, other than for the string case, there’s no way to tell whether there was a value specified or not.
