Detailed Description

       Delegation Functions.

       Functions in this section allow delegation to occur outside of the context initiation handshake.

Function Documentation

   OM_uint32 GSS_CALLCONV gss_accept_delegation (OM_uint32 * minor_status, const gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
       const gss_OID_set extension_oids, const gss_buffer_set_t extension_buffers, const gss_buffer_t
       input_token, OM_uint32 req_flags, OM_uint32 time_req, OM_uint32 * time_rec, gss_cred_id_t *
       delegated_cred_handle, gss_OID * mech_type, gss_buffer_t output_token)
       Accept a delegated credential. This functions drives the accepting side of the credential delegation
       process. It is expected to be called in tandem with the gss_init_delegation function.

       Parameters:
           minor_status The minor status returned by this function. This parameter will be 0 upon success.
           context_handle The security context over which the credential is delegated.
           extension_oids A set of extension OIDs corresponding to buffers in the extension_buffers parameter
           below. May be GSS_C_NO_BUFFER_SET. Currently not used.
           extension_buffers A set of extension buffers corresponding to OIDs in the extension_oids parameter
           above. May be GSS_C_NO_BUFFER_SET. Currently not used.
           input_token The token that was produced by a prior call to gss_init_delegation.
           req_flags Flags that modify the behavior of the function. Currently only GSS_C_GLOBUS_SSL_COMPATIBLE
           is checked for. This flag results in tokens that aren't wrapped.
           time_req The requested period of validity (seconds) of the delegated credential. Currently a NO-OP.
           time_rec This parameter will contain the received period of validity of the delegated credential upon
           success. May be NULL.
           delegated_cred_handle This parameter will contain the delegated credential upon success.
           mech_type Returns the security mechanism upon success. Currently not implemented. May be NULL.
           output_token A token that should be passed to gss_init_delegation if the return value is
           GSS_S_CONTINUE_NEEDED.

       Return values:
           GSS_S_COMPLETE Successful completion
           GSS_S_CONTINUE_NEEDED The function needs to be called again.
           GSS_S_FAILURE Failure

   OM_uint32 GSS_CALLCONV gss_init_delegation (OM_uint32 * minor_status, const gss_ctx_id_t context_handle,
       const gss_cred_id_t cred_handle, const gss_OID desired_mech, const gss_OID_set extension_oids, const
       gss_buffer_set_t extension_buffers, const gss_buffer_t input_token, OM_uint32 req_flags, OM_uint32
       time_req, gss_buffer_t output_token)
       Initiate Delegation. This functions drives the initiating side of the credential delegation process. It
       is expected to be called in tandem with the gss_accept_delegation function.

       Parameters:
           minor_status The minor status returned by this function. This parameter will be 0 upon success.
           context_handle The security context over which the credential is delegated.
           cred_handle The credential to be delegated. May be GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL in which case the credential
           associated with the security context is used.
           desired_mech The desired security mechanism. Currently not used. May be GSS_C_NO_OID.
           extension_oids A set of extension OIDs corresponding to buffers in the extension_buffers parameter
           below. The extensions specified will be added to the delegated credential. May be
           GSS_C_NO_BUFFER_SET.
           extension_buffers A set of extension buffers corresponding to OIDs in the extension_oids parameter
           above. May be GSS_C_NO_BUFFER_SET.
           input_token The token that was produced by a prior call to gss_accept_delegation. This parameter will
           be ignored the first time this function is called.
           req_flags Flags that modify the behavior of the function. Currently only GSS_C_GLOBUS_SSL_COMPATIBLE
           and GSS_C_GLOBUS_LIMITED_DELEG_PROXY_FLAG are checked for. The GSS_C_GLOBUS_SSL_COMPATIBLE flag
           results in tokens that aren't wrapped and GSS_C_GLOBUS_LIMITED_DELEG_PROXY_FLAG causes the delegated
           proxy to be limited (requires that no extensions are specified.
           time_req The requested period of validity (seconds) of the delegated credential. Passing a time_req
           of 0 cause the delegated credential to have the same lifetime as the credential that issued it.
           output_token A token that should be passed to gss_accept_delegation if the return value is
           GSS_S_CONTINUE_NEEDED.

       Return values:
           GSS_S_COMPLETE Success
           GSS_S_CONTINUE_NEEDED This function needs to be called again.
           GSS_S_FAILURE upon failure
