# krb5_mk_rep - Format and encrypt a KRB_AP_REP message.

krb5_error_code `krb5_mk_rep`(krb5_context context, krb5_auth_context auth_context, krb5_data * outbuf)

param: | [in] context - Library context [in] auth_context - Authentication context [out] outbuf - AP-REP message

retval: | 0 Success; otherwise - Kerberos error codes

This function fills in outbuf with an AP-REP message using information from auth_context .

If the flags in auth_context indicate that a sequence number should be used (either `KRB5_AUTH_CONTEXT_DO_SEQUENCE` or `KRB5_AUTH_CONTEXT_RET_SEQUENCE` ) and the local sequence number in auth_context is 0, a new number will be generated with krb5_generate_seq_number().

Use `krb5_free_data_contents()` to free outbuf when it is no longer needed.
