shisa_principal_update3

Usage

Arguments

Shisa * dbh

Shisa library handle created by shisa().

const char * realm

Name of the realm the principal belongs to.

const char * principal

Name of principal to get information about.

const Shisa_principal * ph

Pointer to an existing principal structure containing information to store in the database.

Overview

Modifies information stored about the given principal PRINCIPAL@REALM. Note that it is usually a good idea to set in ph only the fields that are to be updated.

It is generally suggested to first call shisa_principal_find(), to get the current information, then to modify one field and call shisa_principal_update().

Modifying several values is not recommended in general, as this will 1) overwrite any modifications made to other fields between the two calls (by other processes) and 2) will cause all values to be written again, which may generate more overhead.

Return value

Returns SHISA_OK if successful, SHISA_NO_REALM if the indicated realm does not exist, SHISA_NO_PRINCIPAL if the indicated principal does not exist, or an error code otherwise.
