Retrieve an entry from a key table which matches the *keytab* , *principal* , *vno* , and *enctype* . If *vno* is zero, retrieve the highest-numbered kvno matching the other fields. If *enctype* is 0, match any enctype.



Use :c:func:`krb5_free_keytab_entry_contents()` to free *entry* when it is no longer needed.










..






.. note::

	 If *vno* is zero, the function retrieves the highest-numbered-kvno entry that matches the specified principal.
