tpcryptpw(3c)
Name
tpcryptpw() - encrypt application password in administrative request
Synopsis
#include <atmi.h>
#include <fml32.h>
int tpcryptpw(FBFR32 *buf)
Description
tpcryptpw() is used to encrypt the application password stored in an administrative request buffer prior to sending the request for servicing. Application passwords are stored as string values using the FML32 field identifier TA_PASSWORD. This encryption is necessary to insure that clear text passwords are not compromised and that appropriate propagation of the update can take place to all active application sites. Additional system fields may be added to the callers buffer and existing fields may be modified to satisfy the request.
A thread in a multithreaded application may issue a call to tpcryptpw() while running in any context state, including TPINVALIDCONTEXT.
Return Values
Upon failure, tpcryptpw() returns -1 and sets tperrno() to indicate the error condition.
Errors
Upon failure, tpcryptpw() sets tperrno() to one of the following values.
