NAME

       gnutls_srp_verifier - Used to calculate an SRP verifier

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       int  gnutls_srp_verifier(const  char * username, const char * password,
       const gnutls_datum_t * salt, const gnutls_datum_t  *  generator,  const
       gnutls_datum_t * prime, gnutls_datum_t * res);

ARGUMENTS

       const char * username
                   is the user’s name

       const char * password
                   is the user’s password

       const gnutls_datum_t * salt
                   should be some randomly generated bytes

       const gnutls_datum_t * generator
                   is the generator of the group

       const gnutls_datum_t * prime
                   is the group’s prime

       gnutls_datum_t * res
                   where the verifier will be stored.

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  will  create  an SRP verifier, as specified in RFC2945.
       The prime and generator should be one of the static parameters  defined
       in  gnutls/extra.h  or  may  be generated using the libgcrypt functions
       gcry_prime_generate() and gcry_prime_group_generator().

       The verifier will be allocated with malloc and will be  stored  in  res
       using binary format.

RETURNS

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, or an error code.
