krb5_timeofday, krb5_set_real_time, krb5_us_timeofday, krb5_format_time, krb5_string_to_deltat — Kerberos
Contents
Description
krb5_set_real_time sets the absolute time that the caller knows the KDC has. With this the Kerberos
library can calculate the relative difference between the KDC time and the local system time and store it
in the context. With this information the Kerberos library can adjust all time stamps in Kerberos
packages.
krb5_timeofday() returns the current time, but adjusted with the time difference between the local host
and the KDC. krb5_us_timeofday() also returns microseconds.
krb5_format_time formats the time t into the string s of length len. If include_time is set, the time is
set include_time.
krb5_string_to_deltat parses delta time string into deltat.
