       * oldpin, const char * newpin, unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS         top

       const char * token_url
                   A PKCS 11 URL specifying a token

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will modify or set a user or administrator's PIN for
       the given token.  If it is called to set a PIN for first time the
       oldpin must be NULL. When setting the admin's PIN with the
       GNUTLS_PIN_SO flag, the  oldpin value must be provided (this
       requirement is relaxed after GnuTLS 3.6.5 since which the PIN will
       be requested if missing).

RETURNS         top

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative
       error value.
