DPNS_STARTTRANS(3)					      DPNS Library Functions						DPNS_STARTTRANS(3)

NAME

       dpns_starttrans - start transaction mode

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "dpns_api.h"

       int dpns_starttrans (char *server, char *comment);

DESCRIPTION

       dpns_starttrans	starts	transaction  mode.   The  connection to the Name Server is kept open until one of the DB update operation fails or
       dpns_aborttrans or dpns_endtrans is explicitly called.  If all the DB update operations between dpns_starttrans and dpns_endtrans are  suc-
       cessful, a COMMIT is done.  If any DB update operation fails or if an explicit dpns_aborttrans is done, a ROLLBACK is done.  The comment is
       logged in the server log.

RETURN VALUE

       This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation failed. In the latter case, serrno is set appropriately.

ERRORS

       EINVAL	    The length of comment exceeds CA_MAXCOMMENTLEN.

       SENOSHOST    Host unknown.

       SENOSSERV    Service unknown.

       SECOMERR     Communication error.

       ENSNACT	    Name server is not running or is being shutdown.
