# krb5_expand_hostname - Canonicalize a hostname, possibly using name service.

krb5_error_code krb5_expand_hostname(krb5_context context, const char *host, char **canonhost_out)

param:

  [in] context - Library context

  [in] host - Input hostname

  [out] canonhost_out - Canonicalized hostname

This function canonicalizes orig_hostname, possibly using name service lookups if configuration permits. Use krb5_free_string() to free canonhost_out when it is no longer needed.
