+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Fn krb5_copy_host_realm
+copies the list of realms from
+.Fa from
+to
+.Fa to .
+.Fa to
+should be freed by the caller using
+.Fa krb5_free_host_realm .
+.Pp
+.Fn krb5_free_host_realm
+frees all memory allocated by
+.Fa realmlist .
+.Pp
+.Fn krb5_get_default_realm
+returns the first default realm for this host.
+The realm returned should be freed with
+.Fn free .
+.Pp
+.Fn krb5_get_default_realms
+returns a
+.Dv NULL
+terminated list of default realms for this context.
+Realms returned by
+.Fn krb5_get_default_realms
+should be freed with
+.Fn krb5_free_host_realm .
+.Pp
+.Fn krb5_get_host_realm
+returns a
+.Dv NULL
+terminated list of realms for
+.Fa host
+by looking up the information in the
+.Li [domain_realm]
+in
+.Pa krb5.conf
+or in
+.Li DNS .
+If the mapping in
+.Li [domain_realm]
+results in the string
+.Li dns_locate ,
+DNS is used to lookup the realm.
+.Pp
+When using
+.Li DNS
+to a resolve the domain for the host a.b.c,
+.Fn krb5_get_host_realm
+looks for a
+.Dv TXT
+resource record named
+.Li _kerberos.a.b.c ,
+and if not found, it strips off the first component and tries a again
+(_kerberos.b.c) until it reaches the root.
+.Pp
+If there is no configuration or DNS information found,
+.Fn krb5_get_host_realm
+assumes it can use the domain part of the
+.Fa host
+to form a realm.
+Caller must free
+.Fa realmlist
+with
+.Fn krb5_free_host_realm .
+.Pp
+.Fn krb5_set_default_realm
+sets the default realm for the
+.Fa context .
+If
+.Dv NULL
+is used as a
+.Fa realm ,
+the
+.Li [libdefaults]default_realm
+stanza in
+.Pa krb5.conf
+is used.
+If there is no such stanza in the configuration file, the
+.Fn krb5_get_host_realm
+function is used to form a default realm.
