NAME
sasl_server_step - Cyrus SASL documentation
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_server_step(sasl_conn_t *conn,
const char *clientin,
unsigned clientinlen,
const char ** serverout,
unsigned * serveroutlen);
DESCRIPTION
int sasl_server_step(sasl_conn_t *conn,
const char *clientin,
unsigned clientinlen,
const char ** serverout,
unsigned * serveroutlen);
sasl_server_step() performs a step in the authentication nego-
tiation. It returns SASL_OK if the whole negotiation is suc-
cessful and SASL_CONTINUE if this step is ok but at least one
more step is needed.
Parameters
• conn – is the SASL connection context
• clientin – is the data given by the client (decoded if
the protocol encodes requests sent over the wire)
• clientinlen – is the length of clientin
• serverout – set by the library and should be sent to
the client.
• serveroutlen – length of serverout.
RETURN VALUE
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h
for a complete list. SASL_CONTINUE indicates success and that there are
more steps needed in the authentication. SASL_OK indicates that the au-
thentication is complete.
Other return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the
authentication session should be quit.
