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 negotiation.  It returns
              SASL_OK if the whole negotiation is successful and SASL_CONTINUE if this step is ok
              but  at least  one more step is needed.

              Parametersconn – 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 clientinserverout – 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 authentication is complete.

       Other return codes indicate errors and should either  be  handled  or  the  authentication
       session should be quit.
