Authentication APIs

The authentication APIs are used to provide authentication to the Transport-Independent Remote Procedure Call (TI-RPC) applications. These APIs enable a client to pass appropriate information as required by a remote service.

The authentication APIs are:

• auth_destroy() (Destroy authentication information) destroys the authentication information structure that is pointed to by the auth parameter.
• authnone_create() (Create null authentication) creates and returns a default RPC authentication handle that passes null authentication information with each remote procedure call.
• authsys_create() (Create authentication with OS permission) creates and returns an RPC authentication handle that contains authentication information.
