.SH NAME
|
|
rpc_secure \- library routines for secure remote procedure calls
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS AND DESCRIPTION
|
|
These routines are part of the RPC library. They implement DES
|
|
Authentication. See
|
|
.BR rpc (3N)
|
|
for further details about RPC.

.B authdes_create(\|)
|
|
is the first of two routines which interface to the
|
|
.SM RPC
|
|
secure authentication system, known as
|
|
.SM DES
|
|
authentication.
|
|
The second is
|
|
.BR authdes_getucred(\|) ,
|
|
below. Note: the keyserver daemon
|
|
.BR keyserv (8C)
|
|
must be running for the
|
|
.SM DES
|
|
authentication system to work.
|
|
.IP
|
|
.BR authdes_create(\|) ,
|
|
used on the client side, returns an authentication handle that
|
|
will enable the use of the secure authentication system.
|
|
The first parameter
|
|
.I name
|
|
is the network name, or
|
|
.IR netname ,
|
|
of the owner of the server process. This field usually
|
|
represents a
|
|
.I hostname
|
|
derived from the utility routine
|
|
.BR host2netname ,
|
|
but could also represent a user name using
|
|
.BR 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
|
|
parameter
|
|
.I syncaddr
|
|
is optional. If it is
|
|
.SM NULL\s0,
|
|
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 parameter is usually the
|
|
address of the
|
|
.SM RPC
|
|
server itself. The final parameter
|
|
.I ckey
|
|
is also optional. If it is
|
|
.SM NULL\s0,
|
|
then the authentication system will
|
|
generate a random
|
|
.SM DES
|
|
key to be used for the encryption of credentials.
|
|
If it is supplied, however, then it will be used instead.

the second of the two

.SM DES

credential, which is

.B authdes_getucred(\|)

pulls its information from a cache, and does not have to do a

with

.SM RPC\s0's

secure authentication system (\s-1DES\s0

authentication).

.BR key_encryptsession(\|) ,

and

System commands such as

.B key_gendes(\|)
|

Choosing one at \(lqrandom\(rq is usually not good enough,

because

|
the common ways of choosing random numbers, such as using the
|
|
current time, are very easy to guess.
