gnutls_srp_set_...ntials_function(3) gnutls gnutls_srp_set_...ntials_function(3)

NAME
     gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

     void   gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function(gnutls_srp_server_creden-
     tials_t cred, gnutls_srp_server_credentials_function * func);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t cred
		 is a gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t type.

     gnutls_srp_server_credentials_function * func
		 is the callback function

DESCRIPTION
     This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the user's SRP cre-
     dentials.	The callback's function form is:

     int  (*callback)(gnutls_session_t,  const	char*  username,  gnutls_datum_t
     *salt,  gnutls_datum_t *verifier, gnutls_datum_t *generator, gnutls_datum_t
     *prime);

      username contains the actual username.  The  salt ,  verifier ,  generator
     and  prime must be filled in using  the  gnutls_malloc().	For  convenience
     prime  and   generator  may also be one of the static parameters defined in
     gnutls.h.

     Initially, the data field is NULL in every  gnutls_datum_t  structure  that
     the  callback  has to fill in. When the callback is done GnuTLS deallocates
     all of those buffers which are non-NULL, regardless of the return value.

     In order to prevent attackers from guessing valid usernames, if a user does
     not exist, g and n values should be filled in using a random user's parame-
     ters. In that case the callback must return the  special  value  (1).   See
     gnutls_srp_set_server_fake_salt_seed too.	If this is not required for your
     application,  return a negative number from the callback to abort the hand-
     shake.

     The callback function will only be called once per handshake.  The callback
     function should return 0 on success, while -1 indicates an error.
