NAME
     gss_indicate_mechs - determine available security mechanisms

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lgss  [ library... ]
     #include 

     OM_uint32 gss_indicate_mechs(OM_uint32 *minor_status,
          gss_OID_set  *mech_set);


DESCRIPTION
     The gss_indicate_mechs() function enables an application  to
     determine available underlying security mechanisms.

PARAMETERS
     The parameter descriptions for gss_indicate_mechs() follow:

     minor_status    A mechanism-specific status code.


     mech_set        Set of supported  mechanisms.  The  returned
                     gss_OID_set  value  will  be  a dynamically-
                     allocated OID set that should be released by
                     the   caller   after  use  with  a  call  to
                     gss_release_oid_set(3GSS).


ERRORS
     The gss_indicate_mechs() function may return  the  following
     status codes:

     GSS_S_COMPLETE    Successful completion.


     GSS_S_FAILURE     The underlying mechanism detected an error
                       for  which  no specific GSS status code is
                       defined.   The  mechanism-specific  status
                       code reported by means of the minor_status
                       parameter details the error condition.
