Glad to see that the final result is using an API layer in
be-secure.c and that we have tests.  Now, shouldn't there be some
documentation in protocol.sgml for the read and write handling of the
encrypted messages?  Other drivers could need to implement that stuff,
no?  We have that for SSL, with SSLRequest and such.

Yes, that’s a fair point. I’ll work on adding documentation to protocol.sgml for the GSSAPI encrypted setup and message passing.

Thanks,

Stephen
