NAME¶
sasl_checkpass - Cyrus SASL documentation
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_checkpass(sasl_conn_t *conn,
const char *user,
unsigned userlen,
const char *pass,
unsigned passlen);
DESCRIPTION¶
- int sasl_checkpass(sasl_conn_t *conn,
- const char *user,
- unsigned userlen,
- const char *pass,
- unsigned passlen)
- sasl_checkpass will check a plaintext password. This is needed for
protocols that had a login method before SASL (for example the LOGIN
command in IMAP). The password is checked with the pwcheck_method. See
sasl_callbacks(3) for information on how this parameter is set.
RETURN VALUE¶
sasl_checkpass returns an integer which corresponds to one of the following
codes. SASL_OK indicates that the authentication is complete. All other
return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the
authentication session should be quit. See sasl_errors(3) for meanings of
return codes.
