INSSUserAuthentication::Revert

The INSSUserAuthentication::Revert method is used to terminate impersonation.

Syntax

HRESULT Revert ( );

Parameters

This method has no parameters

Return Values

This method should return S_OK upon successful completion, or an HRESULT error value.

Remarks

This method should only be called after authentication is complete, and only if the result is NS_AUTH_SUCCESS. The results of authentication can be determined by calling the INSSAuthenticationContext::GetAuthenticationResult method.

Authenticators typically implement this method by calling the following functions:

• For HTTP-BASIC authentication, call the Win32 function RevertToSelf.
• For NTLM authentication, call the SSPI function RevertSecurityContext.
