gss_import_name(Generic Security Services API Library Fungss_import_name(3GSS)

NAME
       gss_import_name	- convert a contiguous string name to GSS_API internal
       format

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

       OM_uint32 gss_import_name(OM_uint32 * minor_status, const  gss_buffer_t
       input_name_buffer,  const  gss_OID  input_name_type,  gss_name_t	 *out‐
       put_name);

DESCRIPTION
       The gss_import_name() function converts a  contiguous  string  name  to
       internal	 form.	In general, the internal name returned by means of the
       output_name parameter will not be a mechanism name;  the	 exception  to
       this  is	 if  the  input_name_type indicates that the contiguous string
       provided by  means  of  the  input_name_buffer  parameter  is  of  type
       GSS_C_NT_EXPORT_NAME, in which case, the returned internal name will be
       a mechanism name for the mechanism that exported the name.

PARAMETERS
       The parameter descriptions for gss_import_name() follow:

       minor_status	       Status code returned by the  underlying	mecha‐
			       nism.

       input_name_buffer       The  gss_buffer_desc  structure	containing the
			       name to be imported.

       input_name_type	       A gss_OID that specifies the  format  that  the
			       input_name_buffer is in.

       output_name	       The   gss_name_t	  structure   to  receive  the
			       returned name in internal form. Storage associ‐
			       ated with this name must be freed by the appli‐
			       cation	after	use    with    a    call    to
			       gss_release_name().

ERRORS
       The gss_import_name() function may return the following status codes:

       GSS_S_COMPLETE	       The  gss_import_name()  function completed suc‐
			       cessfully.

       GSS_S_BAD_NAMETYPE      The input_name_type was unrecognized.

       GSS_S_BAD_NAME	       The input_name parameter could  not  be	inter‐
			       preted as a name of the specified type.

       GSS_S_BAD_MECH	       The  input_name_type  was GSS_C_NT_EXPORT_NAME,
			       but  the	  mechanism   contained	  within   the
			       input_name is not supported.

       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.
