NAME

       gss_process_context_token() - process a context to the security service

SYNOPSIS


DESCRIPTION

       The routine passes tokens generated by the routine to the security service.

       Usually,  tokens  are associated with either the context establishment or with per-message security services.  If the tokens are associated
       with the context establishment, they are passed to the or routine.  If the tokens are associated with  the  per-message	security  service,
       they are passed to the or routine.

       Tokens generated by the routine are passed by the routine to the security service for processing.

   Input Parameters
       context_handle	     Specifies the context handle on which the security service processes the token.

       input_token_buffer    Specifies an opaque pointer to the first byte of the token to be processed.

   Output Parameters
       minor_status	     Returns a status code from the security mechanism.
