sasl_server_step - Man Page

#include <sasl/sasl.h>

int sasl_server_step(sasl_conn_t *conn,
    const char *clientin,
    unsigned clientinlen,
    const char ** serverout,
    unsigned * serveroutlen);

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.

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.

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.
