| ## dced_keytab_create(3dce) Creates a key table with a list of keys (server passwords) in a new file on a specific host Synopsis #include <dce/dced.h> void dced_keytab_create( dced_binding_handle_t dced_bh, dced_entry_t *keytab_entry, dced_key_list_t *keys, error_status_t *status); Parameters Input dced_bh Specifies the dced binding handle for the keytab service on a specific host. Input/Output keytab_entry Specifies the keytab entry to create for dced. keys Specifies the list of keys to be written to the key table file. 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_create( ) routine creates a new key table file on a specific host, and it generates the associated keytab service entry in dced. This routine is used by management applications to remotely create a key table. Servers typically create their own key table locally using the sec_key_mgmt_set_key(3sec) routine. However, if several servers on different hosts share the same principal, each host requires a local copy of the key table. If a key table that you want to add to the keytab service already exists on the host, you can add it to the service by calling dced_entry_add( ). This routine creates a new keytab service entry by associating the existing key table file with a new UUID in dced. Prior to calling the dced_keytab_create( ) 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.
