NAME

       gss_import_sec_context - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gss.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_import_sec_context(OM_uint32 * minor_status, const
       gss_buffer_t interprocess_token, gss_ctx_id_t * context_handle);


ARGUMENTS

       OM_uint32 * minor_status
                   (Integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.

       const gss_buffer_t interprocess_token
                   (buffer, opaque, modify) Token received from
                     exporting process

       gss_ctx_id_t * context_handle
                   (gss_ctx_id_t, modify) Context handle of newly
                     reactivated context.  Resources associated with this
                   context
                     handle must be released by the application after use with
                   a call
                     to gss_delete_sec_context().


DESCRIPTION

       Allows a process to import a security context established by another
       process.  A given interprocess token may be imported only once.  See
       gss_export_sec_context.


RETURN VALUE

       `GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.

       `GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT`: The token did not contain a valid context
       reference.

       `GSS_S_DEFECTIVE_TOKEN`: The token was invalid.

       `GSS_S_UNAVAILABLE`: The operation is unavailable.

       `GSS_S_UNAUTHORIZED`: Local policy prevents the import of this
        context by the current process.
