NAME
       gss_canonicalize_name - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gss.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);

ARGUMENTS
       OM_uint32 * minor_status
		   (Integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.

       const gss_name_t input_name
		   (gss_name_t, read) The name for which a canonical form
		     is desired.

       const gss_OID mech_type
		   (Object ID, read) The authentication mechanism for
		     which the canonical form of the name is desired.  The desired
		     mechanism must be specified explicitly; no default is provided.

       gss_name_t * output_name
		   (gss_name_t, modify) The resultant canonical name.
		     Storage associated with this name must be freed by the
		     application after use with a call to gss_release_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 con-
       text acceptor 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 mechanism.

RETURN VALUE
       `GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.
