gss_canonicalizeGenericGSecurity Services API Libragss_canonicalize_name(3GSS)

NAME
       gss_canonicalize_name - convert an internal name to a mechanism name

SYNOPSIS
       cc [flag ...] file... -lgss [library ...]
       #include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_canonicalize_name(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
	    const gss_name_t input_name,const gss_OID mech_type,
	    gss_name_t *output_name);

DESCRIPTION
       The  gss_canonicalize_name()  function  generates a canonical mechanism
       name from an arbitrary internal name.  The mechanism name is  the  name
       that  would be returned to a context acceptor on successful authentica‐
       tion of a context where the initiator used the input_name in a success‐
       ful  call  to  gss_acquire_cred(3GSS), specifying an OID set containing
       mech_type as its only member, followed by a call	 to  gss_init_sec_con‐
       text(3GSS), specifying mech_type as the authentication mechanism.

PARAMETERS
       The parameter descriptions for gss_canonicalize_name() follow:

       minor_status    Mechanism-specific status code.

       input_name      The name for which a canonical form is desired.

       mech_type       The  authentication  mechanism  for which the canonical
		       form of the name is  desired.   The  desired  mechanism
		       must be specified explicitly; no default is provided.

       output_name     The  resultant canonical name.  Storage associated with
		       this name must be freed by the  application  after  use
		       with a call to gss_release_name(3GSS).

ERRORS
       The gss_canonicalize_name() function may return the status codes:

       GSS_S_COMPLETE	     Successful completion.

       GSS_S_BAD_MECH	     The identified mechanism is not supported.

       GSS_S_BAD_NAMETYPE    The  provided  internal name contains no elements
			     that could be processed by the  specified	mecha‐
			     nism.

       GSS_S_BAD_NAME	     The provided internal name was ill-formed.

       GSS_S_FAILURE	     The  underlying  mechanism	 detected an error for
			     which no specific GSS  status  code  is  defined.
			     The  mechanism-specific  status  code reported by
			     means of the minor_status parameter  details  the
			     error condition.
