NAME

       shisa_key_update - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <shisa.h>

       int  shisa_key_update(Shisa  *  dbh,  const  char * realm, const char *
       principal, const Shisa_key * oldkey, const Shisa_key * newkey);

ARGUMENTS

       Shisa * dbh Shisa library handle created by shisa().

       const char * realm
                   Name of realm the principal belongs in.

       const char * principal
                   Name of principal to remove key for.

       const Shisa_key * oldkey
                   Pointer to Shisa key structure with hints on  matching  the
                   key to modify.

       const Shisa_key * newkey
                   Pointer to Shisa key structure with new values for the key,
                   note that all fields  are  used  (and  not  just  the  ones
                   specified by oldkey).

DESCRIPTION

       Modify  data about a key in the database, for the given PRINCIPALREALM.
       First the oldkey is used to  locate  the  key  to  update  (similar  to
       shisa_keys_find()),  then  that  key  is  modified  to contain whatever
       information is stored in newkey.  Not all elements of oldkey need to be
       filled  out, only enough as to identify the key uniquely.  For example,
       if you want to modify the information stored for the only key  with  an
       etype  of  3  (DES-CBC-MD5), set the key->etype field to 3, and set all
       other fields to 0.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns  SHISA_OK  on  success,  SHISA_NO_KEY  if  no  key   could   be
       identified,  and  SHISA_MULTIPLE_KEY_MATCH if more than one key matched
       the given criteria, or an error code.
