NAME
sec_id_gen_name - Generates a global name from cell and principal
UUIDs
SYNOPSIS
#include <dce/secidmap.h>
void sec_id_gen_name(
sec_rgy_handle_t context,
uuid_t *cell_idp,
uuid_t *princ_idp,
sec_rgy_name_t global_name,
sec_rgy_name_t cell_namep,
sec_rgy_name_t princ_namep,
error_status_t *status);
PARAMETERS
Input
context
An opaque handle bound to a registry server. Use
sec_rgy_site_open() to acquire a bound handle.
cell_idp
A pointer to the UUID of the home cell of the principal whose
name is in question.
princ_idp
A pointer to the UUID of the principal whose name is in question.
Output
global_name
The global (full) name of the principal in sec_rgy_name_t form.
cell_namep
The name of the principal's home cell in sec_rgy_name_t form.
princ_namep
The local (with respect to the home cell) name of the principal in
sec_rgy_name_t form.
status
A pointer to the completion status. On successful completion, the
function returns error_status_ok. Otherwise, it returns an error.
DESCRIPTION
The sec_id_gen_name() routine generates a global name from input cell
and principal UUIDs. For example, given a UUID specifying the
cell /.../world/hp/brazil, and a UUID specifying a principal resident
in that cell named writers/tom, the routine would return the global name
of that principal, in this case, /.../world/hp/brazil/writers/tom. It
also returns the simple names of the cell and principal, translated from
the UUIDs.
The routine will not produce translations to any name for which a NULL
pointer has been supplied.
Permissions Required
The sec_id_gen_name() routine requires at least one permission of any
kind on the account associated with the input cell and principal UUIDs.
FILES
SYS$COMMON:[DCE$LIBRARY]SECIDMAP.IDL
The idl file from which dce/secidmap.h was derived.
ERRORS
sec_id_e_name_too_long
The name is too long for current implementation.
sec_id_e_bad_cell_uuid
The cell UUID is not valid.
sec_rgy_object_not_found
The registry server could not find the specified principal.
sec_rgy_server_unavailable
The DCE Registry Server is unavailable.
error_status_ok
The call was successful.
