I have a client/server application for which I want to encrypt the packets
sent to the server and the server decrypts the packets and then acts on the
data contained in the packets.
What are the various ways in which I can use kerberos routines to do the
encryption and decryption of the packets? I'm not really interrested in
hard coding a password in the client or server. There must be a way of
achieving what I want without hard coding a password.
Any and all help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
-franco
