gss_duplicate_name -- Create a copy of an internal name 

C Prototype 

OM_uint32 gss_duplicate_name(
        OM_uint32              minor_status,
        const gss_name_t       input_name,
        gss_name_t             dest_name );

Arguments 

minor_status (output)		An implementation-specific status code.
input_name (input)		The internal name to be duplicated.
dest_name (output)		The resultant copy of input_name. Storage associated with this name must be freed by the application after use by a call to gss_release_name.

Description 

This routine creates a duplicate of the existing internal name input_name. The new dest_name will be independent of input_name (that is, input_name and dest_name must both be released, and the release of one will not affect the validity of the other).

Return Values 

This routine returns one of the following GSS status codes:

GSS_S_COMPLETE	Successful completion.
GSS_S_BAD_NAME	The input_name argument was ill formed.
