This function is originally from Solaris and is not documented by either MIT or Heimdal. In general, it functions similarly to :func:`~gssapi.raw.creds.acquire_cred`. Args: name (~gssapi.raw.names.Name): the name to acquire credentials for password (bytes): the password used to acquire credentialss with lifetime (int): the lifetime for the credentials in seconds (or None for indefinite) mechs (~gssapi.raw.types.MechType): the desired mechanisms for which the credentials should work (or None for the default set) usage (str): usage type for credentials. Possible values: 'initiate' (default), 'accept', 'both' (failsafe). Returns: AcquireCredResult: the resulting credentials, the actual mechanisms with which they may be used, and their actual lifetime in seconds (or None for indefinite or not supported) Raises: ~gssapi.exceptions.GSSError """
