Daniel,
    Thanx for the reply. After sifting through some documentation you can
do it within in libcurl but you are basically right.

http://search.cpan.org/src/SHUQUE/Authen-Krb5Password-1.01/kpass.c

    err = krb5_get_in_tkt_with_password(
               context,
               0, NULL, NULL, NULL, password, ccache, &credentials, 0);
