gss_import_sec_context(3GSS)			  Generic Security Services API Library Functions		      gss_import_sec_context(3GSS)

NAME

       gss_import_sec_context - import security context established by another process

SYNOPSIS

       cc -flag ...  file ...-lgss [library ...]
       #include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_import_sec_context(OM_uint32 *minor_status, const gss_buffer_t interprocess_token, gss_ctx_id_t *context_handle);

DESCRIPTION

       The  gss_import_sec_context()  function	allows a process to import a security context established by another process. A given interprocess
       token can be imported only once. See gss_export_sec_context(3GSS).

PARAMETERS

       The parameter descriptions for gss_import_sec_context() are as follows:

       minor_status	       A mechanism-specific status code.

       interprocess_token      Token received from exporting process.

       context_handle	       Context handle of newly reactivated context. Resources associated with this context handle must be released by  the
			       application after use with a call to gss_delete_sec_context(3GSS).

ERRORS

       gss_import_sec_context() returns one of the following status codes:

       GSS_S_COMPLETE		       Successful completion.

       GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT 	       The token did not contain a valid context reference.

       GSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN	       The token was invalid.

       GSS_S_UNAVAILABLE	       The operation is unavailable.

       GSS_S_UNAUTHORIZED	       Local policy prevents the import of this context by the current process.

       GSS_S_FAILURE		       The  underlying	mechanism  detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined.	The mecha-
				       nism-specific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condition.

NAME

       gss_context_time - determine how long a context will remain valid

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lgss  [ library... ]
       #include <gssapi/gssapi.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_context_time(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
	    gss_ctx_id_t *context_handle,OM_uint32 *time_rec);

DESCRIPTION

       The gss_context_time() function determines the number of seconds for which the specified context will remain valid.

PARAMETERS

       The parameter descriptions for gss_context_time() are as follows:

       minor_status	 A mechanism-specific status code.

       context_handle	 A read-only value. Identifies the context to be interrogated.

       time_rec 	 Modifies the number of seconds that the context remains valid.  If the context has already expired, returns zero.

ERRORS

       The gss_context_time() function returns one of the following status codes:

       GSS_S_COMPLETE		Successful completion.

       GSS_S_CONTEXT_EXPIRED	The context has already expired.

       GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT 	The context_handle parameter did not identify a valid context.

       GSS_S_FAILURE		The  underlying  mechanism detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined.	The mechanism-spe-
				cific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condition.
