✨ shishi_tgs_sendrecv_hint ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the shishi section of the manual, it's manual page number 3, and it's literally the glow-up your Kerberos client needs when it's time to go get a server ticket. πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

shishi_tgs_sendrecv_hint β€” an API function, no cap 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_tgs_sendrecv_hint(Shishi_tgs * tgs, Shishi_tkts_hint * hint);

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • Shishi_tgs * tgs β€” the structure that holds all the info about the TGS exchange. it's giving main character, it's carrying the whole conversation πŸ’–
  • Shishi_tkts_hint * hint β€” extra parameters that modify connection behaviour, or NULL. like, optional but iconic. pass NULL if you want the default vibe 🌈

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so what does it do? it sends a TGS-REQ and receives a TGS-REP or a KRB-ERROR. that's the whole thing, fr fr.

this is the subsequent authentication step β€” usually the one you use to acquire server tickets. think of it as round two: you already showed up, now you're asking for the actual goods. πŸ‘‘

and the hint structure? that's where you get to set stuff like, e.g., parameters for TLS authentication. so if you need to tweak how the connection behaves, that's your girl. ✨


⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

Returns SHISHI_OK iff successful. anything else and, well, it's not giving successful. 😭


πŸ’€ REPORTING BUGS πŸ’€

found a bug? report it to <bug-shishi@gnu.org> β€” they wanna know, for real.
