dbGetUserPriv -- get user privileges based on host and user name

Synopsis

cc [flag ...] file ... -kthread -leels [library] ...

#include <eelsdba.h>

DBPriv_t *dbGetUserPriv( char *host,
	char *user );

Description

dbGetUserPriv returns the user privileges based on host and user names. This routine returns a linked list of DBPriv_t structures each corresponding to a set of privileges for a host/user pair. Multiple entries can be returned from this routine if wildcards are used for host or user (that is, passing NULL or ``any'' for either of those fields).

The DBPriv_t structure is defined in /usr/include/eelsdba.h. The dbFreePriv(3dba) routine must be called to free the linked list that is returned from this routine.

The word ``any'' can be used as a wildcard for the host or user field.

Arguments

host: (Input) The IP/Hostname.
user: (Input) The user name.

Return values

On success dbGetUserPriv returns a linked list of DBPriv_t structures. On failure it returns NULL.
