.TH "gss_inquire_context" 3 "1.0.3" "gss" "gss"
.SH NAME
gss_inquire_context \- API function
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <gss.h>
.sp
.BI "OM_uint32 gss_inquire_context(OM_uint32 * " minor_status ", const gss_ctx_id_t " context_handle ", gss_name_t * " src_name ", gss_name_t * " targ_name ", OM_uint32 * " lifetime_rec ", gss_OID * " mech_type ", OM_uint32 * " ctx_flags ", int * " locally_initiated ", int * " open ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "OM_uint32 * minor_status" 12
(Integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.
.IP "const gss_ctx_id_t context_handle" 12
(gss_ctx_id_t, read) A handle that refers to the
security context.
.IP "gss_name_t * src_name" 12
(gss_name_t, modify, optional) The name of the context
initiator. If the context was established using anonymous
authentication, and if the application invoking
gss_inquire_context is the context acceptor, an anonymous name
will be returned. Storage associated with this name must be
freed by the application after use with a call to
\fBgss_release_name()\fP. Specify NULL if not required.
.IP "gss_name_t * targ_name" 12
(gss_name_t, modify, optional) The name of the context
acceptor. Storage associated with this name must be freed by the
application after use with a call to \fBgss_release_name()\fP. If the
context acceptor did not authenticate itself, and if the
initiator did not specify a target name in its call to
\fBgss_init_sec_context()\fP, the value GSS_C_NO_NAME will be returned.
Specify NULL if not required.
.IP "OM_uint32 * lifetime_rec" 12
(Integer, modify, optional) The number of seconds
for which the context will remain valid. If the context has
expired, this parameter will be set to zero. If the
implementation does not support context expiration, the value
GSS_C_INDEFINITE will be returned. Specify NULL if not required.
.IP "gss_OID * mech_type" 12
(gss_OID, modify, optional) The security mechanism
providing the context. The returned OID will be a pointer to
static storage that should be treated as read\-only by the
application; in particular the application should not attempt to
free it. Specify NULL if not required.
.IP "OM_uint32 * ctx_flags" 12
(bit\-mask, modify, optional) Contains various
independent flags, each of which indicates that the context
supports (or is expected to support, if ctx_open is false) a
specific service option. If not needed, specify NULL. Symbolic
names are provided for each flag, and the symbolic names
corresponding to the required flags should be logically\-ANDed
with the ret_flags value to test whether a given option is
supported by the context. See below for the flags.
.IP "int * locally_initiated" 12
(Boolean, modify) Non\-zero if the invoking
application is the context initiator. Specify NULL if not
required.
.IP "int * open" 12
(Boolean, modify) Non\-zero if the context is fully
established; Zero if a context\-establishment token is expected
from the peer application. Specify NULL if not required.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Obtains information about a security context. The caller must
already have obtained a handle that refers to the context, although
the context need not be fully established.
The `ctx_flags` values:
`GSS_C_DELEG_FLAG`::
\- True \- Credentials were delegated from the initiator to the
acceptor.
\- False \- No credentials were delegated.
`GSS_C_MUTUAL_FLAG`::
\- True \- The acceptor was authenticated to the initiator.
\- False \- The acceptor did not authenticate itself.
`GSS_C_REPLAY_FLAG`::
\- True \- replay of protected messages will be detected.
\- False \- replayed messages will not be detected.
`GSS_C_SEQUENCE_FLAG`::
\- True \- out\-of\-sequence protected messages will be detected.
\- False \- out\-of\-sequence messages will not be detected.
`GSS_C_CONF_FLAG`::
\- True \- Confidentiality service may be invoked by calling gss_wrap
routine.
\- False \- No confidentiality service (via gss_wrap)
available. gss_wrap will provide message encapsulation, data\-origin
authentication and integrity services only.
`GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG`::
\- True \- Integrity service may be invoked by calling either
gss_get_mic or gss_wrap routines.
\- False \- Per\-message integrity service unavailable.
`GSS_C_ANON_FLAG`::
\- True \- The initiator's identity will not be revealed to the
acceptor. The src_name parameter (if requested) contains an
anonymous internal name.
\- False \- The initiator has been authenticated normally.
`GSS_C_PROT_READY_FLAG`::
\- True \- Protection services (as specified by the states of the
GSS_C_CONF_FLAG and GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG) are available for use.
\- False \- Protection services (as specified by the states of the
GSS_C_CONF_FLAG and GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG) are available only if the
context is fully established (i.e. if the open parameter is
non\-zero).
`GSS_C_TRANS_FLAG`::
\- True \- The resultant security context may be transferred to other
processes via a call to \fBgss_export_sec_context()\fP.
\- False \- The security context is not transferable.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
`GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.
`GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT`: The referenced context could not be accessed.
