This means that any program that wants to use sname_to_princ but wants to allow users to override the krb5.conf default realm via the command line has to munge the realm component of the result of sname_to_princ directly. This is ugly, and currently rlogin/rsh/rcp, kprop/d, and probably telnet/d do it this way. See [krb5-admin/39]. A better solution would be for krb5_sname_to_principal to take a realm argument. This can be accomplished in two ways: 1, a new function krb5_sname_to_princ_with_realm or 2, by adding a new argument to the existing principal, using API versioning. This would be a nice test case for the api versioning system. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Audit-Trail: From: "Theodore Y.
