SYNOPSIS

       #include <gss.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_release_cred(OM_uint32 * minor_status, gss_cred_id_t * cred_handle);

                   (gss_cred_id_t, modify, optional) Opaque handle

       associated resources.  The cred_handle is set to GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL on  successful  completion  of  this
       call.
