.Sh DESCRIPTION
These routines are part of the
.Tn RPC
library.  They implement
.Tn DES
Authentication.  See
.Xr rpc 3
for further details about
.Tn RPC .
.Pp
The
.Fn authdes_create
is the first of two routines which interface to the
.Tn RPC
secure authentication system, known as
.Tn DES
authentication.
The second is
.Fn authdes_getucred ,
below.
.Pp
Note: the keyserver daemon
.Xr keyserv 8
must be running for the
.Tn DES
authentication system to work.
.Pp
The
.Fn authdes_create
function,
used on the client side, returns an authentication handle that
will enable the use of the secure authentication system.
The first argument
.Fa name
is the network name, or
.Fa netname ,
of the owner of the server process.
This field usually
represents a
.Fa hostname
derived from the utility routine
.Fn host2netname ,
but could also represent a user name using
.Fn user2netname .
The second field is window on the validity of
the client credential, given in seconds.  A small
window is more secure than a large one, but choosing
too small of a window will increase the frequency of
resynchronizations because of clock drift.
The third
argument
.Fa addr
is optional.  If it is
.Dv NULL ,
then the authentication system will assume
that the local clock is always in sync with the server's
clock, and will not attempt resynchronizations.
If an address
is supplied, however, then the system will use the address
for consulting the remote time service whenever
resynchronization
is required.
This argument is usually the
address of the
.Tn RPC
server itself.
The final argument
.Fa ckey
is also optional.  If it is
.Dv NULL ,
then the authentication system will
generate a random
.Tn DES
key to be used for the encryption of credentials.
If it is supplied, however, then it will be used instead.
.Pp
The
.Fn authdes_pk_create
function is identical to
.Fn authdes_create ,
except that the public key needs to be provided at calling time and
will not looked up by this function itself.
.Pp
The
.Fn authdes_getucred
function,
the second of the two
.Tn DES
authentication routines,
is used on the server side for converting a
.Tn DES
credential, which is
operating system independent, into a
.Ux
credential.
This routine differs from utility routine
.Fn netname2user
in that
.Fn authdes_getucred
pulls its information from a cache, and does not have to do a
Yellow Pages lookup every time it is called to get its information.
.Pp
The
.Fn getnetname
function
installs the unique, operating-system independent netname of
the
caller in the fixed-length array
.Fa name .
Returns
.Dv TRUE
if it succeeds and
.Dv FALSE
if it fails.
.Pp
The
.Fn host2netname
function
converts from a domain-specific hostname to an
operating-system independent netname.
Returns
.Dv TRUE
if it succeeds and
.Dv FALSE
if it fails.
Inverse of
.Fn netname2host .
.Pp
The
.Fn key_decryptsession
function
is an interface to the keyserver daemon, which is associated
with
.Tn RPC Ns 's
secure authentication system
.Tn ( DES
authentication).
User programs rarely need to call it, or its associated routines
.Fn key_encryptsession ,
.Fn key_gendes
and
.Fn key_setsecret .
System commands such as
.Xr login 1
and the
.Tn RPC
library are the main clients of these four routines.
.Pp
The
.Fn key_decryptsession
function
takes a server netname and a
.Tn DES
key, and decrypts the key by
using the public key of the server and the secret key
associated with the effective uid of the calling process.  It
is the inverse of
.Fn key_encryptsession .
.Pp
The
.Fn key_encryptsession
function
is a keyserver interface routine.
It
takes a server netname and a des key, and encrypts
it using the public key of the server and the secret key
associated with the effective uid of the calling process.  It
is the inverse of
.Fn key_decryptsession .
.Pp
The
.Fn key_gendes
function
is a keyserver interface routine.
It
is used to ask the keyserver for a secure conversation key.
Choosing one
.Qq random
is usually not good enough,
because
the common ways of choosing random numbers, such as using the
current time, are very easy to guess.
.Pp
The
.Fn key_setsecret
function
is a keyserver interface routine.
It is used to set the key for
the effective
.Fa uid
of the calling process.
.Pp
The
.Fn netname2host
function
converts from an operating-system independent netname to a
domain-specific hostname.
Returns
.Dv TRUE
if it succeeds and
.Dv FALSE
if it fails.  Inverse of
.Fn host2netname .
.Pp
The
.Fn netname2user
function
converts from an operating-system independent netname to a
domain-specific user ID.
Returns
.Dv TRUE
if it succeeds and
.Dv FALSE
if it fails.
Inverse of
.Fn user2netname .
.Pp
The
.Fn user2netname
function
converts from a domain-specific username to an operating-system
independent netname.
Returns
.Dv TRUE
if it succeeds and
.Dv FALSE
if it fails.
Inverse of
.Fn netname2user .
