 NAME

   dced_server_delete - Deletes a DCE server's configuration data
                        from dced

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <dce/dced.h>

   void dced_server_delete( dced_binding_handle_t  dced_bh,
                            uuid_t                 *conf_uuid,
                            error_status_t         *status );

 PARAMETERS

   Input

   dced_bh
       Specifies the dced binding handle for the srvrconf service
       on a specific host.

   conf_uuid
       Specifies the UUID that dced uses to identify the server's
       configuration data to be deleted.

   Output

   status
       Returns the status code from this routine.  This status code
       indicates whether the routine completed successfully or, if
       not, why not. The possible status codes are:

            error_status_ok
            db_s_bad_index_type
            db_s_del_failed
            db_s_iter_not_allowed
            dced_s_bad_binding
            dced_s_not_found
            sec_acl_invalid_permission

 DESCRIPTION

   The dced_server_delete() routine deletes a server's configuration
   data from the server's dced.  This routine removes a server from
   DCE control by making it incapable of starting via dced.  It does
   not delete the program from disk nor does it affect the server
   if it is currently running.

   Prior to using dced_server_delete(), the server configuration
   data must be created by an administrator using the dcecp server
   create operation or by an application that using
   dced_server_create().

   Prior to calling dced_server_delete(), the application must
   have established a valid dced binding handle to the srvrconf
   service by calling either dced_binding_create() or
   dced_binding_from_rpc_binding().

 EXAMPLES

   In the following example, a dced binding is created to the
   server configuration service on a host, and then an inquiry
   is made as to the UUID associated with a particular server.
   The dced_server_delete() routine is then used to delete the
   configuration.

        dced_binding_handle_t dced_bh;
        dced_string_t         server_name;
        uuid_t                srvrconf_id;
        error_status_t        status;

        name_server( &server_name );    /* application specific */
        dced_binding_create( "srvrconf@hosts/katharine",
                             dced_c_binding_syntax_default,
                             &dced_bh,
                             &status );
        dced_inq_id( dced_bh, server_name, &srvrconf_id, &status );
        dced_server_delete( dced_bh, &srvrconf_id, &status );
        dced_binding_free( dced_bh, &status );
