Authenticating from within a program is very easy. All you have to do
is call the routine ka_UserAuthenticate:
if(ka_UserAuthenticate(pwd->pw_name, /*instance*/"",
/*cell*/0, password, /*sepag*/1,
&errorstring)) {
printf("Error authenticating: %s\n",
errorstring);
}
This a great routine to use if you want to create your own su or any
other program that needs to authenticate.
If you do not want another pag just replace the 1 in the setpag line with 0.
You'll need a libpath like (order is very important):
AFSLIBS = ${LIBDIR}afs/libkauth.a ${LIBDIR}libubik.a ${LIBDIR}afs/libprot.a \
${LIBDIR}librxkad.a ${LIBDIR}librx.a ${LIBDIR}liblwp.a \
${LIBDIR}afs/libauth.a ${LIBDIR}afs/libsys.a \
${LIBDIR}librxkad.a ${LIBDIR}libdes.a \
${LIBDIR}afs/libcmd.a ${LIBDIR}afs/libcom_err.a
${LIBDIR}afs/util.a
If you still want to see the code for guardian I can find a copy that is
public for you.
