NAME

       sasl_authorize_t - The SASL authorization callback

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sasl/sasl.h>

       int sasl_authorize_t(void *context,
                           const char *requested_user, unsigned alen,
                           const char *auth_identity, unsigned alen,
                           const char *def_realm, unsigned urlen,
                           struct propctx *propctx)

DESCRIPTION

       sasl_authorize_t is used to check whether the authorized user auth_identity may act as the
       user requested_user.  For example  the  user  root  may  wish  to  authenticate  with  his
       credentials but act as the user tmartin (with all of tmartin's rights not roots). A server
       application should be very careful,  and  probably  err  on  the  side  of  caution,  when
       determining which users may proxy as whom.

RETURN VALUE

       SASL  callback  functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list.
       SASL_OK indicates success.
