Syntax

 #include <gssapi.h>

 OM_uint32 gss_inquire_mechs_for_name (
     OM_uint32 *    minor_status,  
     gss_name_t     input_name,
     gss_OID_set *    mech_types);

  Service Program Name: QSYS/QKRBGSS

  Default public authority: *USE

  Threadsafe: Yes

The gss_inquire_mechs_for_name() function returns the mechanisms with which a name may be processed.

Parameters

minor_status (Output): A status code from the security mechanism.
input_name (Input): The name to be queried.
mech_types (Output): The mechanisms that can be used with the specified name. The gss_OID_set returned for this parameter should be released by calling the gss_release_oid_set() routine when it is no longer needed.

Return Value

The return value is one of the following status codes:

GSS_S_BAD_NAME: The supplied name is not valid.
GSS_S_BAD_NAMETYPE: The name type is not supported.
GSS_S_COMPLETE: The routine completed successfully.
GSS_S_FAILURE: The routine failed for reasons that are not defined at the GSS level. The minor_status return parameter contains a mechanism-dependent error code describing the reason for the failure.
