 NAME
   sec_acl_replace - Replaces an ACL

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <dce/daclif.h>

   void sec_acl_replace(
           sec_acl_handle_t h,
           uuid_t *manager_type,
           sec_acl_type_t sec_acl_type,
           sec_acl_list_t *sec_acl_list,
           error_status_t *status);

 PARAMETERS

   Input

   h     A handle referring to the target object. Use sec_acl_bind() to
         create this handle.

   manager_type
         A pointer to the UUID identifying the type of the ACL manager
         in question. There may be more than one type of ACL manager
         protecting the object whose ACL is bound to the input handle.
         Use this parameter to distinguish them.  Use
         sec_acl_get_manager_types() to acquire a list of the manager
         types protecting a given object.

   sec_acl_type
         The ACL type. The sec_acl_type_t data type distinguishes the
         various types of ACLs an object can possess for a given manager
         type.  The possible values are as follows:

           +  sec_acl_type_object

           +  sec_acl_type_default_object

           +  sec_acl_type_default_container

   sec_acl_list
         The new ACL to use for the target object. This is represented by a
         pointer to the sec_acl_list_t structure containing the complete
         Access Control List.  An ACL contains a list of ACL entries, the
         UUID of the default cell where authentication will take place
         (foreign entries in the ACL contain the name of their parent
         cell), and the UUID of the ACL manager to interpret the list.

   Output

   status
         A pointer to the completion status.  On successful completion, the
         routine returns error_status_ok. Otherwise, it returns an error.

 DESCRIPTION

   The sec_acl_replace() routine replaces the ACL indicated by the input
   handle with the information in the sec_acl_list parameter. ACLs are
   thought of as immutable, and in order to modify them, an editing
   application must read an entire ACL (using the sec_acl_lookup()
   routine), modify it as needed, and replace it using this routine.

   Permissions Required

   The sec_acl_replace() routine requires the c (control) permission on the
   object for which the ACL is to be replaced.

 FILES
     SYS$COMMON:[DCE$LIBRARY]DACLIF.IDL
                The idl file from which dce/daclif.h was derived.

 ERRORS

   sec_acl_unknown_manager_type
                The manager type selected is not an available option.

   error_status_ok
                The call was successful.
