# krb5\_get\_all\_client\_addrs(3)

return local addresses

## NAME

**krb5\_get\_all\_client\_addrs**, **krb5\_get\_all\_server\_addrs** – return local addresses

## LIBRARY

Kerberos 5 Library (libkrb5, -lkrb5)

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<krb5.h\>**

*krb5\_error\_code*\

**krb5\_get\_all\_client\_addrs**(*krb5\_context context*, *krb5\_addresses \*addrs*);

*krb5\_error\_code*\

**krb5\_get\_all\_server\_addrs**(*krb5\_context context*, *krb5\_addresses \*addrs*);

## DESCRIPTION

These functions return in *addrs* a list of addresses associated with the local host.

The server variant returns all configured interface addresses (if possible), including loop-back addresses. This is useful if you want to create sockets to listen to.

The client version will also scan local interfaces (can be turned off by setting libdefaults/scan\_interfaces to false in *krb5.conf*), but will not include loop-back addresses, unless there are no other addresses found. It will remove all addresses included in libdefaults/ignore\_addresses but will unconditionally include addresses in libdefaults/extra\_addresses.

The returned addresses should be freed by calling **krb5\_free\_addresses**().
