You cannot get a TGT using GSSAPI. GSSAPI has no facility for initial
authentication.
For an example of many different types of authentication using the native
Kerberos API, take a look at:
http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/kstart/
If you already have the password in hand, you probably want the
krb5_get_init_creds_password function, but there's some setup that you
have to do first and you probably want to store the credentials in a
ticket cache afterwards.
