NAME

       munge - MUNGE credential encoder

SYNOPSIS

       munge [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  munge  program creates an MUNGE credential containing the UID and GID of the calling process.  Additional payload data can be encapsu-
       lated in as well.  The returned credential can be passed to another process which can validate its contents (e.g.,  via	the  unmunge  pro-
       gram).  This allows an unrelated and potentially remote process to ascertain the identity of the calling process.

       By default, payload input is read from stdin and the credential is written to stdout.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      Display a summary of the command-line options.

       -L, --license
	      Display license information.

       -V, --version
	      Display version information.

       -n, --no-input
	      Discard all input for the payload.

       -s, --string string
	      Input payload from the specified string.

       -i, --input file
	      Input payload from the specified file.

       -o, --output file
	      Output the credential to the specified file.

       -c, --cipher string
	      Specify the cipher type, either by name or number.

       -C, --list-ciphers
	      Display a list of supported cipher types.

       -m, --mac string
	      Specify the MAC type, either by name or number.

       -M, --list-macs
	      Display a list of supported MAC types.

       -z, --zip string
	      Specify the compression type, either by name or number.

       -Z, --list-zips
	      Display a list of supported compression types.

       -u, --restrict-uid uid
	      Specify  the  user  name or UID allowed to decode the credential.  This will be matched against the effective user ID of the process
	      requesting the credential decode.

       -g, --restrict-gid gid
	      Specify the group name or GID allowed to decode the credential.  This will be matched against the effective group ID of the  process
	      requesting the credential decode, as well as each supplementary group of which the effective user ID of that process is a member.

       -t, --ttl integer
	      Specify  the  time-to-live  (in  seconds).   This  controls how long the credential is valid once it has been encoded.  A value of 0
	      selects the default TTL.	A value of -1 selects the maximum allowed TTL.

       -S, --socket path
	      Specify the local domain socket for connecting with munged.

EXIT STATUS

       The munge program returns a zero exit code when the credential is successfully created and returned.  On error, it prints an error  message
       to stderr and returns a non-zero exit code.

NAME

       munge_enum_is_valid, munge_enum_int_to_str, munge_enum_str_to_int - MUNGE enumeration functions

SYNOPSIS

       #include <munge.h>

       int munge_enum_is_valid (munge_enum_t type, int val);

       const char * munge_enum_int_to_str (munge_enum_t type, int val);

       int munge_enum_str_to_int (munge_enum_t type, const char *str);

       cc ... -lmunge

DESCRIPTION

       The  munge_enum_is_valid()  function  checks if the given value val is a valid MUNGE enumeration of the specified type type in the software
       configuration as currently compiled.  Some enumerations correspond to options that can only be enabled at compile-time.

       The munge_enum_int_to_str() function converts the MUNGE enumeration val of the specified type type into a text string.

       The munge_enum_str_to_int() function converts the NUL-terminated case-insensitive string str into the corresponding  MUNGE  enumeration	of
       the specified type type.

RETURN VALUE

       The munge_enum_is_valid() function returns non-zero if the given value val is a valid enumeration.

       The  munge_enum_int_to_str()  function  returns a NUL-terminated constant text string, or NULL on error; this string should not be freed or
       modified by the caller.

       The munge_enum_str_to_int() function returns a MUNGE enumeration on success (i.e., >= 0), or -1 on error.

ENUM TYPES

       The following enumeration types can be specified.

       MUNGE_ENUM_CIPHER
	      Specify enumerations for the available cipher types.

       MUNGE_ENUM_MAC
	      Specify enumerations for the available MAC types.

       MUNGE_ENUM_ZIP
	      Specify enumerations for the available compression types.

ERRORS

       Refer to munge(3) for a complete list of errors.

EXAMPLE

       The following example program illustrates how a list of available cipher types can be queried.

       #include <stdio.h>		       /* for printf() */
       #include <stdlib.h>		       /* for exit() */
       #include <munge.h>

       int
       main (int argc, char *argv[])
       {
	   int		 i;
	   const char	*p;
	   munge_enum_t  t = MUNGE_ENUM_CIPHER;

	   for (i = 0; (p = munge_enum_int_to_str (t, i)) != NULL; i++) {
	       if (munge_enum_is_valid (t, i)) {
		   printf ("%2d = %s
", i, p);
	       }
	   }
	   exit (0);
       }
