gss_inquire_saslname_for_mech(3)					gss					  gss_inquire_saslname_for_mech(3)

NAME

       gss_inquire_saslname_for_mech - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gss.h>

       OM_uint32  gss_inquire_saslname_for_mech(OM_uint32  *  minor_status,  const gss_OID desired_mech, gss_buffer_t sasl_mech_name, gss_buffer_t
       mech_name, gss_buffer_t mech_description);

ARGUMENTS

       OM_uint32 * minor_status
		   (Integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.

       const gss_OID desired_mech
		   (OID, read) Identifies the GSS-API mechanism to query.

       gss_buffer_t sasl_mech_name
		   (buffer, character-string, modify, optional)
		     Buffer to receive SASL mechanism name.  The application must free
		     storage associated with this name after use with a call to
		     gss_release_buffer().

       gss_buffer_t mech_name
		   (buffer, character-string, modify, optional) Buffer to
		     receive human readable mechanism name.  The application must free
		     storage associated with this name after use with a call to
		     gss_release_buffer().

       gss_buffer_t mech_description
		   (buffer, character-string, modify, optional)
		     Buffer to receive description of mechanism.  The application must
		     free storage associated with this name after use with a call to
		     gss_release_buffer().

DESCRIPTION

       Output the SASL mechanism name of a GSS-API mechanism.  It also returns a name and description of the mechanism in a user friendly form.

RETURNS

       `GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.

       `GSS_S_BAD_MECH`: The desired_mech OID is unsupported.

NAME

       gss_export_name - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gss.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_export_name(OM_uint32 * minor_status, const gss_name_t input_name, gss_buffer_t exported_name);

ARGUMENTS

       OM_uint32 * minor_status
		   (Integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.

       const gss_name_t input_name
		   (gss_name_t, read) The MN to be exported.

       gss_buffer_t exported_name
		   (gss_buffer_t, octet-string, modify) The canonical
		     contiguous string form of input_name.  Storage associated with
		     this string must freed by the application after use with
		     gss_release_buffer().

DESCRIPTION

       To produce a canonical contiguous string representation of a mechanism name (MN), suitable for direct comparison (e.g. with memcmp) for use
       in authorization functions (e.g. matching entries in an access-control list).  The input_name parameter must specify a valid  MN  (i.e.	an
       internal name generated by gss_accept_sec_context() or by gss_canonicalize_name()).

RETURN VALUE

       `GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.

       `GSS_S_NAME_NOT_MN`: The provided internal name was not a mechanism name.

       `GSS_S_BAD_NAME`: The provided internal name was ill-formed.

       `GSS_S_BAD_NAMETYPE`: The internal name was of a type not supported by the GSS-API implementation.
