Valid flags to pass into .Fa options argument are: .Pp .Bl -tag -width "KRB5_GC_USER_USER" -compact .It KRB5_GC_CACHED Only check the .Fa ccache , don't got out on network to fetch credential. .It KRB5_GC_USER_USER request a user to user ticket. This options doesn't store the resulting user to user credential in the .Fa ccache. .El .Pp .Fa Flags are KDCOptions, note the caller must fill in the bit-field and not use the integer associated structure. .Pp .Fn krb5_get_credentials works the same way as .Fn krb5_get_credentials_with_flags except that the .Fa flags field is missing. .Pp .Fn krb5_get_cred_from_kdc and .Fn krb5_get_cred_from_kdc_opt fetches the credential from the KDC very much like .Fn krb5_get_credentials, but doesn't look in the .Fa ccache if the credential exists there first. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr krb5 3 , .Xr krb5_get_forwarded_creds 3 , .Xr krb5.conf 5
