Stanislav Sedov ae77177087 - Update FreeBSD Heimdal distribution to version 1.5.1. This also brings
several new kerberos related libraries and applications to FreeBSD:
  o kgetcred(1) allows one to manually get a ticket for a particular service.
  o kf(1) securily forwards ticket to another host through an authenticated
    and encrypted stream.
  o kcc(1) is an umbrella program around klist(1), kswitch(1), kgetcred(1)
    and other user kerberos operations. klist and kswitch are just symlinks
    to kcc(1) now.
  o kswitch(1) allows you to easily switch between kerberos credentials if
    you're running KCM.
  o hxtool(1) is a certificate management tool to use with PKINIT.
  o string2key(1) maps a password into key.
  o kdigest(8) is a userland tool to access the KDC's digest interface.
  o kimpersonate(8) creates a "fake" ticket for a service.

  We also now install manpages for some lirbaries that were not installed
  before, libheimntlm and libhx509.

- The new HEIMDAL version no longer supports Kerberos 4.  All users are
  recommended to switch to Kerberos 5.

- Weak ciphers are now disabled by default.  To enable DES support (used
  by telnet(8)), use "allow_weak_crypto" option in krb5.conf.

- libtelnet, pam_ksu and pam_krb5 are now compiled with error on warnings
  disabled due to the function they use (krb5_get_err_text(3)) being
  deprecated.  I plan to work on this next.

- Heimdal's KDC now require sqlite to operate.  We use the bundled version
  and install it as libheimsqlite.  If some other FreeBSD components will
  require it in the future we can rename it to libbsdsqlite and use for these
  components as well.

- This is not a latest Heimdal version, the new one was released while I was
  working on the update.  I will update it to 1.5.2 soon, as it fixes some
  important bugs and security issues.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
These functions perform the quality check for the heimdal database
library.
.Pp
There are two versions of the shared object API; the old version (0)
is deprecated, but still supported. The new version (1) supports
multiple password quality checking policies in the same shared object.
See below for details.
.Pp
The password quality checker will run all policies that are
configured by the user. If any policy rejects the password, the password
will be rejected.
.Pp
Policy names are of the form
.Ql module-name:policy-name
or, if the the policy name is unique enough, just
.Ql policy-name .
.Sh IMPLEMENTING A PASSWORD QUALITY CHECKING SHARED OBJECT
(This refers to the version 1 API only.)
.Pp
Module shared objects may conveniently be compiled and linked with
.Xr libtool 1 .
An object needs to export a symbol called
.Ql kadm5_password_verifier
of the type
.Ft "struct kadm5_pw_policy_verifier" .
.Pp
Its
.Ft name
and
.Ft vendor
fields should contain the obvious information.
.Ft name
must match the
.Ql module-name
portion of the policy name (the part before the colon), if the policy name
contains a colon, or the policy will not be run.
.Ft version
should be
.Dv KADM5_PASSWD_VERSION_V1 .
.Pp
.Ft funcs
contains an array of
.Ft "struct kadm5_pw_policy_check_func"
structures that is terminated with an entry whose
.Ft name
component is
.Dv NULL .
The
.Ft name
field of the array must match the
.Ql policy-name
portion of a policy name (the part after the colon, or the complete policy
name if there is no colon) specified by the user or the policy will not be
run. The
.Ft func
fields of the array elements are functions that are exported by the
module to be called to check the password. They get the following
arguments: the Kerberos context, principal, password, a tuning parameter, and
a pointer to a message buffer and its length. The tuning parameter
for the quality check function is currently always
.Dv NULL .
If the password is acceptable, the function returns zero. Otherwise
it returns non-zero and fills in the message buffer with an
appropriate explanation.
.Sh RUNNING THE CHECKS
.Nm kadm5_setup_passwd_quality_check
sets up type 0 checks. It sets up all type 0 checks defined in
.Xr krb5.conf 5
if called with the last two arguments null.
.Pp
.Nm kadm5_add_passwd_quality_verifier
sets up type 1 checks. It sets up all type 1 tests defined in
.Xr krb5.conf 5
if called with a null second argument.
.Nm kadm5_check_password_quality
runs the checks in the order in which they are defined in
.Xr krb5.conf 5
and the order in which they occur in a
module's
.Ft funcs
array until one returns non-zero.
