Deletes a key table file from a specific host
Synopsis
#include <dce/dced.h>
void dced_keytab_delete(
dced_binding_handle_t dced_bh,
uuid_t *keytab_uuid,
error_status_t *status);
Parameters
Input
dced_bh
Specifies the dced binding handle for the keytab service on a specific host.
keytab_uuid
Specifies the UUID of the keytab entry and associated key table to be deleted.
Output
status
Returns the status code from this routine. This status code indicates whether the routine completed successfully or, if not, why not.
Description
The dced_keytab_delete( ) routine deletes a key table (file) from a specific host and removes the associated entry from the keytab service of that
host's dced. A key table is a file containing a list of server keys (passwords). This routine is used by management applications to remotely delete a key table.
To remove individual keys from a remote key table, use the dced_keytab_remove_key( ) routine. If you want to only make the key table inaccessible remotely (via dced) but not delete it, use the dced_entry_remove( ) routine. This routine only removes the key table's keytab entry from dced.
Prior to calling the dced_keytab_delete( ) routine, the application must have established a valid dced binding handle to the keytab service by calling either the dced_binding_create( ) or dced_binding_from_rpc_binding( ) routine.
