RpcBindingInqAuthClient  1BX9_VO

This function is supported by both 32-bit platforms   Windows NT and Windows 95.

#include <rpc.h>

RPC_STATUS RPC_ENTRY RpcBindingInqAuthClient(

Parameters

ClientBinding

Specifies the client binding handle of the client that made the remote procedure call. This value can be zero (see Remarks).

Privs

Returns a pointer to a handle to the privileged information for the client application that made the remote procedure call on the ClientBinding binding handle.

The server application must cast the ClientBinding binding handle to the data type specified by the AuthzSvc argument. The data referenced by this argument is read-only and should not be modified by the server application. If the server wants to preserve any of the returned data, the server must copy the data into server-allocated memory. This parameter is not used by the RPC_C_AUTHN_WINNT authentication service. The returned pointer will always be NULL.

ServerPrincName

Returns a pointer to a pointer to the server principal name specified by the client application that made the remote procedure call on the ClientBinding binding handle. The content of the returned name and its syntax are defined by the authentication service in use.

Specify a null value to prevent RpcBindingInqAuthClient from returning the ServerPrincName argument. In this case, the application does not call the RpcStringFree routine.

AuthnLevel

Returns a pointer to the level of authentication requested by the client application that made the remote procedure call on the ClientBinding binding handle.

Specify a null value to prevent RpcBindingInqAuthClient from returning the AuthnLevel argument.

AuthnSvc

Returns a pointer to the authentication service requested by the client application that made the remote procedure call on the ClientBinding binding handle. For a list of the RPC-supported authentication levels, see Authentication-Level ConstantsVGIVU_.

Specify a null value to prevent RpcBindingInqAuthClient from returning the AuthnSvc argument. This parameter is not used by the RPC_C_AUTHN_WINNT authentication service. The returned value will always be RPC_S_AUTHZ_NONE.

AuthzSvc

Returns a pointer to the authorization service requested by the client application that made the remote procedure call on the Binding binding handle. For a list of possible returns, see RpcMgmtInqDefaultProtectLevel.

Specify a null value to prevent RpcBindingInqAuthClient from returning the AuthnSvc argument.

Remarks

A server application calls the RpcBindingInqAuthClient routine to obtain the principal name or privilege attributes of the authenticated client that made the remote procedure call. In addition, RpcBindingInqAuthClient returns the authentication service, authentication level, and server principal name specified by the client. The server can use the returned data for authorization purposes.

The RPC run-time library allocates memory for the returned ServerPrincName argument. The application is responsible for calling the RpcStringFree routine for the returned argument string.

For clients using the MIDL auto_handle or implicit_handle attribute, the server application should use zero as the value for the ClientBinding parameter. Using zero retrieves the authentication and authorization information from the currently executing remote procedure call.
