Hi:
	I'm looking for an easy way from inside a 'C' program I'm
writing to find out if a "username" already exists in the kerberos
database.  Sort of like the Unix "getpwnam()" function but I don't need
any data structure returned, only a "yes" or a "no" answer to the
question "does username exist in kerberos".

	Sample code or pointers to the proper functions will be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
-franco
