◆ globus_gss_assist_acquire_cred()

OM_uint32 globus_gss_assist_acquire_cred	(	OM_uint32 *	minor_status,
		gss_cred_usage_t	cred_usage,
		gss_cred_id_t *	output_cred_handle
	)

Called once at the start of the process, to obtain the credentials the process is running under. The

Parameters

minor_status	pointer for return code
cred_usage	GSS_C_INITIATE, GSS_C_ACCEPT, or GSS_C_BOTH
output_cred_handle	Pointer to the returned handle. This needs to be passed to many gss routines.

Returns: GSS_S_COMPLETE on success Other GSSAPI return codes

◆ globus_gss_assist_acquire_cred_ext()

OM_uint32 globus_gss_assist_acquire_cred_ext	(	OM_uint32 *	minor_status,
		char *	desired_name_char,
		OM_uint32	time_req,
		const gss_OID_set	desired_mechs,
		gss_cred_usage_t	cred_usage,
		gss_cred_id_t *	output_cred_handle,
		gss_OID_set *	actual_mechs,
		OM_uint32 *	time_rec
	)

Called once at the start of the process, to obtain the credentials the process is running under. All the parameters of the gss_acquire_cred(), except the desired_name is a string of the form: [type:]name. This will be imported with the type.

Returns: GSS_S_COMPLETE on success Other GSSPI return codes

◆ globus_gss_assist_read_vhost_cred_dir()

OM_uint32 globus_gss_assist_read_vhost_cred_dir	(	OM_uint32 *	minor_status,
		const char *	dir,
		gss_cred_id_t **	output_credentials_array,
		size_t *	output_credentials_array_size
	)

Acquire all GSSAPI credentials in a directory.

This function loads all of the credentials available in the vhost credential directory and returns them in its output parameters.

The credentials directory is expected to contain a directory for each credential, with the directory containing cert.pem and privkey.pem files.

If the dir parameter is NULL, then this function uses the X509_VHOST_CRED_DIR environment variable, or the default /etc/grid-security/vhosts/ if it is not set.
