| ## dce_server_sec_begin(3dce) Establishes a server to receive fully authenticated remote procedure calls (RPCs) and to also act as a client to do authenticated RPCs Synopsis #include <dce/dced.h> void dce_server_sec_begin( unsigned32 flags, error_status_t *status); Parameters Input flags Flags are set to manage keys and setup a login context. Valid values include the following: dce_server_c_manage_key dce_server_c_login 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 dce_server_sec_begin( ) routine prepares a server to receive authenticated RPCs. It also sets up all that is required for the application, when behaving as a client to other servers, to do authenticated RPCs as a client. When authentication is required, this call must precede all other RPC and DCE server initialization calls, including dce_server_register( ). When your application is finished listening for RPCs, it should call the dce_server_sec_done( ) routine. Errors The following describes a partial list of errors that might be returned.
