# GSS-API key exchange

This module provides GSS-API / SSPI Key Exchange as defined in RFC 4462.

Note

Credential delegation is not supported in server mode.

Note

RFC 4462 Section 2.2 says we are not required to implement GSS-API error messages. Thus, in many methods within this module, if an error occurs an exception will be thrown and the connection will be terminated.
