98 <p>This function attempts to verify that <em>creds</em> were obtained from a KDC with knowledge of a key in <em>keytab</em> , or the default keytab if <em>keytab</em> is NULL. If <em>server</em> is provided, the highest-kvno key entry for that principal name is used to verify the credentials; otherwise, all unique”host”service principals in the keytab are tried.</p>
99 <p>If the specified keytab does not exist, or is empty, or cannot be read, or does not contain an entry for <em>server</em> , then credential verification may be skipped unless configuration demands that it succeed. The caller can control this behavior by providing a verification options structure; see <a class="reference internal" href="krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_init.html#c.krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_init" title="krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_init"><tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_init()</span></tt></a> and <a class="reference internal" href="krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_set_ap_req_nofail.html#c.krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_set_ap_req_nofail" title="krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_set_ap_req_nofail"><tt class="xref c c-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">krb5_verify_init_creds_opt_set_ap_req_nofail()</span></tt></a> .</p>
100 <p>If <em>ccache</em> is NULL, any additional credentials fetched during the verification process will be destroyed. If <em>ccache</em> points to NULL, a memory ccache will be created for the additional credentials and returned in <em>ccache</em> . If <em>ccache</em> points to a valid credential cache handle, the additional credentials will be stored in that cache.</p>
