NAME
rpc_winnt_free_auth_identity - This function is called by the client
RPC application to free a a WINNT auth_identity structure that was
previously allocated by a call to rpc_winnt_set_auth_identity().
SYNOPSIS
#include <rpc.h>
PUBLIC void rpc_winnt_free_auth_identity (
rpc_auth_identity_handle_t *auth_identity,
unsigned32 *stp)
PRAMETERS
INPUT
auth_identity - Pointer to a pointer to WINNT auth_identity structure.
On output auth_identity will be set to NULL.
OUTPUT
stp Pointer to returned status.

The following APIs are included in DCE Version 1.5 to support server
impersonation of a client. This means that the server runs with the
security credentials of the client, and all of the capabilities of the
client belong to the server.
18.1 RPC_IMPERSONATE_CLIENT
NAME
rpc_impersonate_client - This function is called by the server
application to allow the current server thread to run with all
of the client privileges.
SYNOPSIS
#include <rpc.h>
void rpc_impersonate_client(
rpc_binding_handle_t binding_handle,
rpc_status_t *status)
PARAMETERS
INPUT
binding_handle - Specifies a server-side call handle for this
RPC which represents the client to impersonate.
OUTPUT
status - Specifies a pointer to an unsigned 32 bit integer
that holds a status code.
|
NAME
rpc_revert_to_self - This function is called by the server application
to revert back to its original security context after impersonating a client.
SYNOPSIS
#include <rpc.h>
rpc_revert_to_self(*status)
PARAMETERS
INPUT
NONE
OUTPUT
status - Specifies a pointer to an unsigned 32 bit integer
that holds a status code.
|
NAME
rpc_revert_to_self_ex - This function is called by the server
application to revert back to its original security context after
impersonating a client. This acts as a call to rpc_revert_to_self();
SYNOPSIS
#include <rpc.h>
rpc_revert_to_self_ex(
rpc_binding_handle_t binding_handle,
rpc_status_t *status)
PARAMETERS
INPUT
call handle - This parameter is ignored.
OUTPUT
status - Specifies a pointer to an unsigned 32 bit integer
that holds a status code.
