Help me Mr. Wizard!
I have a program where I have to initiate a security context a second
time to the same service (after calling gss_delete_sec_context). The
problem is that the second attempt always fails. -- GSS_NO_CONTEXT
| GSS_BAD_BINDINGS. I'm not using the channel bindings, I pass
GSS_C_NULL_CHANNEL_BINDINGS.
example:
gss_init_sec_context ()
...
gss_seal ()
send_request ()
get_reply ()
rc = gss_unseal ()
if (rc is bad)
{
gss_delete_sec_context ()
gss_init_sec_context ()
gss_unseal ()
}
...
gss_delete_sec_context ()
I know this is kludgy, but I inherited these programs and must
make them work.
BTW, I'm usings Cybersafe Security Toolkit 1.0 with Cybersafe
Kerberos 5.6.2c.
As an aside, I'm new this, will I ever come to like the GSS API?
Thank-you.
