+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm krb5_verify_user
+function verifies the password supplied by a user.
+The principal whose
+password will be verified is specified in
+.Fa principal .
+New tickets will be obtained as a side-effect and stored in
+.Fa ccache
+(if NULL, the default ccache is used).
+If the password is not supplied in
+.Fa password
+(and is given as
+.Dv NULL )
+the user will be prompted for it.
+If
+.Fa secure
+the ticket will be verified against the locally stored service key
+.Fa service
+(by default
+.Ql host
+if given as
+.Dv NULL
+).
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm krb5_verify_user_lrealm
+function does the same, except that it ignores the realm in
+.Fa principal
+and tries all the local realms (see
+.Xr krb5.conf 5 ) .
+.Sh EXAMPLE
+Here is a example program that verifies a password. it uses the
+.Ql host/`hostname`
+service principal in
+.Pa krb5.keytab .
