server_acquire_creds()

Gets the credentials for the requested network service.

Example A–11 server_acquire_creds()

/*
 * Function: server_acquire_creds
 *
 * Purpose: imports a service name and acquires credentials for it
 *
 * Arguments:
 *
 *      service_name    (r) the ASCII service name
        mechType        (r) the mechanism type to use
 *      server_creds    (w) the GSS-API service credentials
 *
 * Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure
 *
 * Effects:
 *
 * The service name is imported with gss_import_name, and service
 * credentials are acquired with gss_acquire_cred.  If either operation
 * fails, an error message is displayed and -1 is returned; otherwise,
 * 0 is returned.
