sia_make_entity_pwd(3) Library Functions Manual sia_make_entity_pwd(3) NAME sia_make_entity_pwd - Make entity password - SIA (Security Integration Architecture) LIBRARY Standard C library (libc.so and libc.a) SYNOPSIS #include <siad.h> #include <signal.h> #include <setjmp.h> int sia_make_entity_pwd( struct passwd *pwd, SIAENTITY *entity); PARAMETERS entity The entity parameter points to the SIAENTITY structure that will have its pwd data updated. The values in the SIAENTITY structure are changed by this routine. pwd The pwd parameter points to the passwd structure that will have its data duplicated by the pwd field of the entity structure. DESCRIPTION The sia_make_entity_pwd() routine fills in the pwd field of the entity structure, using malloc() to ensure that the copied data is not over- written by subsequent calls to getpwent(). RETURN VALUES The sia_make_entity_pwd() routine returns SIASUCCESS or SIAFAIL. ERRORS The errno value is not (normally) set explicitly by sia_* routines. The errno values are those returned from the dynamic loader interface, from dependent (siad_*) routines, or from malloc. Possible errors in- clude resource constraints (no memory) and various authentication fail- ures. FILES /etc/passwd RELATED INFORMATION sia_ses_init(3) Security delim off sia_make_entity_pwd(3)
