NAME
       gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function - API	function

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<gnutls/gnutls.h>

       void  gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function(gnutls_srp_server_cre-
       dentials_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
       credentials.  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_da-
       tum_t *prime);

	username  contains the actual username.	 The  salt ,  verifier ,  gen-
       erator and  prime must be filled	in using the gnutls_malloc(). For con-
       venience	 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  parameters.  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 handshake.

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