58.Sh DESCRIPTION
59Convert the Kerberos 5 credential to Kerberos 4 credential.
60This is done by sending them to the 524 service in the KDC.
61.Pp
62.Fn krb524_convert_creds_kdc
63converts the Kerberos 5 credential in
64.Fa in_cred
65to Kerberos 4 credential that is stored in
66.Fa credentials .
67.Pp
68.Fn krb524_convert_creds_kdc_ccache
69is diffrent from
70.Fn krb524_convert_creds_kdc
71in that way that if
72.Fa in_cred
73doesn't contain a DES session key, then a new one is fetched from the
74KDC and stored in the cred cache
75.Fa ccache ,
76and then the KDC is queried to convert the credential.
77.Pp
78This interfaces are used to make the migration to Kerberos 5 from
79Kerberos 4 easier.
80There are few services that still need Kerberos 4, and this is mainly
81for compatibility for those services.
82Some services, like AFS, really have Kerberos 5 supports, but still
83uses the 524 interface to make the migration easier.
