[Freeipa-users] ipalib authentication

[Adam Bishop]

I'm writing a bit of code using ipalib directly, I'm a little stuck on authentication though.

It works fine if grab a Kerberos ticket with kinit then run the code interactively, but I'd like to run this as a daemon which makes maintaining a ticket tricky.

What other options are there for authenticating to the API, avoiding calling external tools like curl or kinit?

Regards,

Adam Bishop
