GSS_CANONICALIZE_NAME(3) Programmer's Manual GSS_CANONICALIZE_NAME(3) NAME gss_canonicalize_name -- Convert an internal name to an MN SYNOPSIS #include <gssapi/gssapi.h> OM_uint32 gss_canonicalize_name(OM_uint32 *minor_status, const gss_name_t input_name, const gss_OID mech_type, gss_name_t *output_name); DESCRIPTION Generate a canonical mechanism name (MN) from an arbitrary internal name. The mechanism name is the name that would be returned to a context accep- tor on successful authentication of a context where the initiator used the input_name in a successful call to gss_acquire_cred(), specifying an OID set containing mech_type as its only member, followed by a call to gss_init_sec_context(), specifying mech_type as the authentication mecha- nism. PARAMETERS minor_status Mechanism specific status code. input_name The name for which a canonical form is desired. mech_type The authentication mechanism for which the canonical form of the name is desired. The desired mechanism must be specified explicitly; no default is provided. output_name The resultant canonical name. Storage associated with this name must be freed by the application after use with a call to gss_release_name(). RETURN VALUES GSS_S_COMPLETE Successful completion. GSS_S_BAD_MECH The identified mechanism is not supported. GSS_S_BAD_NAMETYPE The provided internal name contains no elements that could be processed by the specified mechanism. GSS_S_BAD_NAME The provided internal name was ill-formed.
