NAME

CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION - set allowed GSS-API delegation

SYNOPSIS

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION, long level);

DESCRIPTION

Set the long parameter level to CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_FLAG to allow unconditional GSSAPI credential delegation. The delegation is disabled by default since 7.21.7. Set the parameter to CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_POLICY_FLAG to delegate only if the OK-AS-DELEGATE flag is set in the service ticket in case this feature is supported by the GSS-API implementation and the definition of GSS_C_DELEG_POLICY_FLAG was available at compile-time.

DEFAULT

CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_NONE

PROTOCOLS

if(curl) {
  CURLcode ret;
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
  /* delegate if okayed by policy */
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION,
                         CURLGSSAPI_DELEGATION_POLICY_FLAG);
  ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
