A Revised Internet Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Common Authentication 
Technology Working Group of the IETF.                                 

       Title     : Generic Security Service Application Program 
                   Interface                                          
       Author(s) : John Linn
       Filename  : draft-ietf-cat-genericsec-04.txt
       Pages     : 46

This draft document specifies C language bindings for the Generic 
Security Service Application Program Interface (GSS-API), which is 
described at a language-independent conceptual level in other drafts. 

The Generic Security Service Application Programming Interface 
(GSS-API) provides security services to its callers, and is intended 
for implementation atop alternative underlying cryptographic 
mechanisms. Typically, GSS-API callers will be application protocols 
into which security enhancements are integrated through invocation of 
services provided by the GSS-API. The GSS-API allows a caller 
application to authenticate a principal identity associated with a 
peer application, to delegate rights to a peer, and to apply security 
services such as confidentiality and integrity on a per-message basis.
