.Sh NAME
.Nm gssapi
.Nd Generic Security Service Application Program Interface library
.Sh LIBRARY
GSS-API Library (libgssapi, -lgssapi)
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The Generic Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API)
provides security services to callers in a generic fashion,
supportable with a range of underlying mechanisms and technologies and
hence allowing source-level portability of applications to different
environments.
.Sh LIST OF FUNCTIONS
These functions constitute the gssapi library,
.Em libgssapi .
Declarations for these functions may be obtained from the include file
.Pa gssapi.h .

.Sh COMPATIBILITY
The
.Nm Heimdal
.Nm
implementation had a bug in releases before 0.6 that made it fail to
inter-operate with other
.Nm
implementations when using
.Fn gss_get_mic
/
.Fn gss_verify_mic .
.Pp
To turn on compatibility with older clients and servers, change the
.Nm [gssapi]
.Ar broken_3des_mic
in
.Pa krb5.conf
that contains a list of globbing expressions that will be matched
against the server name.
This config option modifies behaviour for both clients and servers.
.Pp
Example:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
[gssapi]
broken_3des_mic = cvs/*@SU.SE
broken_3des_mic = host/*@SU.SE afs/*@SU.SE
.Ed
.Sh BUGS
All of 0.5.x versions of
.Nm heimdal
had broken token delegations in the client side, the server side was
correct.
