## SYNOPSIS

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

*krb5\_error\_code*\

**krb5\_get\_forwarded\_creds**(*krb5\_context context*, *krb5\_auth\_context auth\_context*, *krb5\_ccache ccache*, *krb5\_flags flags*, *const char \*hostname*, *krb5\_creds \*in\_creds*, *krb5\_data \*out\_data*);

*krb5\_error\_code*\

**krb5\_fwd\_tgt\_creds**(*krb5\_context context*, *krb5\_auth\_context auth\_context*, *const char \*hostname*, *krb5\_principal client*, *krb5\_principal server*, *krb5\_ccache ccache*, *int forwardable*, *krb5\_data \*out\_data*);

## DESCRIPTION

**krb5\_get\_forwarded\_creds**() and **krb5\_fwd\_tgt\_creds**() get tickets forwarded to *hostname.* If the tickets that are forwarded are address-less, the forwarded tickets will also be address-less, otherwise *hostname* will be used for figure out the address to forward the ticket too.
