If .Fa cell is .Dv NULL , the local cell is used. If .Fa realm is .Dv NULL , the function tries to guess what realm to use. Unless you have some good knowledge of what cell or realm to use, you should pass .Dv NULL . .Fn krb_afslog will use the real user-id for the .Dv ViceId field in the token, .Fn krb_afslog_uid will use .Fa uid . .Pp .\" .Fn krb5_afslog , .\" and .\" .Fn krb5_afslog_uid .\" are the Kerberos 5 equivalents of .\" .Fn krb_afslog , .\" and .\" .Fn krb_afslog_uid . .\" The extra arguments are the ubiquitous context, and the cache id where .\" to store any obtained tickets. Since AFS servers normally can't handle .\" Kerberos 5 tickets directly, these functions will first obtain version .\" 5 tickets for the requested cells, and then convert them to version 4 .\" tickets, that can be stashed in the kernel. To convert tickets the .\" .Fn krb524_convert_creds_kdc .\" function will be used. .\" .Pp .Fn k_afs_cell_of_file will in .Fa cell return the cell of a specified file, no more than .Fa len characters is put in .Fa cell . .Pp .Fn k_pioctl does a .Fn pioctl syscall with the specified arguments. This function is equivalent to .Fn lpioctl . .Pp .Fn k_setpag initializes a new PAG. .Pp .Fn k_unlog removes destroys all tokens in the current PAG. .Sh RETURN VALUES .Fn k_hasafs returns 1 if AFS is present in the kernel, 0 otherwise. .Fn krb_afslog and .Fn krb_afslog_uid returns 0 on success, or a kerberos error number on failure. .Fn k_afs_cell_of_file , .Fn k_pioctl , .Fn k_setpag , and .Fn k_unlog all return the value of the underlaying system call, 0 on success. .Sh ENVIRONMENT The following environment variable affect the mode of operation of .Nm kafs : .Bl -tag -width AFS_SYSCALL .It Ev AFS_SYSCALL Normally, .Nm kafs will try to figure out the correct system call(s) that are used by AFS by itself. If it does not manage to do that, or does it incorrectly, you can set this variable to the system call number or list of system call numbers that should be used. .El .Sh EXAMPLES The following code from .Nm login will obtain a new PAG and tokens for the local cell and the cell of the users home directory. .Bd -literal if (k_hasafs()) { char cell[64]; k_setpag(); if(k_afs_cell_of_file(pwd->pw_dir, cell, sizeof(cell)) == 0) krb_afslog(cell, NULL); krb_afslog(NULL, NULL); } .Ed .Sh ERRORS If any of these functions (apart from .Fn k_hasafs ) is called without AFS beeing present in the kernel, the process will usually (depending on the operating system) receive a SIGSYS signal. .Sh SEE ALSO .Rs .%A Transarc Corporation .%J AFS-3 Programmer's Reference .%T File Server/Cache Manager Interface .%D 1991 .Re .Sh BUGS .Ev AFS_SYSCALL has no effect under AIX.
