NAME

sec_rgy_cell_bind-Binds to a registry in a cell

SYNOPSIS

#include <dce/binding.h>

void sec_rgy_cell_bind(
    unsigned_char_t *cell_name,
    sec_rgy_bind_auth_info_t *auth_info,
    sec_rgy_handle_t *context,
    error_status_t *status);

PARAMETERS

Input

cell_name

A character string (type unsigned_char_t) containing the name of the cell in question. Upon return, a Security Server for that cell is associated with context, the registry server handle. The cell must be specified completely and precisely. This routine offers none of the pathname resolving services of sec_rgy_site_bind().

auth_info

A pointer to the sec_rgy_bind_auth_info_t structure that identifies the authentication protocol, protection level, and authorization protocol to use in establishing the binding. (See the rpc_binding_set_auth_info() routine).

Output

context

A pointer to a sec_rgy_handle_t variable. Upon return, this contains a registry server handle indicating (bound to) the desired registry site.

status

A pointer to the completion status. On successful completion, the routine returns error_status_ok. Otherwise, it returns an error.

DESCRIPTION

The sec_rgy_cell_bind() routine establishes a relationship with a registry site at an arbitrary level of security. The cell_name parameter identifies the target cell.

FILES

The idl file from which dce/binding.h was derived.

ERRORS
