Types

type Creds

type Creds struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Creds are the peer credentials.

func Get

func Get(c net.Conn) (*Creds, error)

Get returns the peer credentials for c.

For unsupported system, the error is ErrNotImplemented.

func (*Creds) PID

func (c *Creds) PID() (pid int, ok bool)

func (*Creds) UserID

func (c *Creds) UserID() (uid string, ok bool)

UserID returns the userid (or Windows SID) that owns the other side of the connection, if known. (ok is false if not known) The returned string is suitable to passing to os/user.LookupId.
