PLUGINVIEWER(8) System Manager's Manual PLUGINVIEWER(8) NAME
pluginviewer - list loadable SASL plugins and their properties SYNOPSIS
pluginviewer [-a] [-s] [-c] [-b min=N,max=N] [-e ssf=N,id=ID] [-m MECHS] [-x AUXPROP_MECH] [-f FLAGS] [-p PATH] DESCRIPTION
pluginviewer can be used by a server administrator to troubleshoot SASL installations. The utility can list loadable (properly configured) client and server side plugins, as well as auxprop plugins. OPTIONS
-a List auxprop plugins. -s List server authentication (SASL) plugins. -c List client authentication (SASL) plugins. -b min=N1,max=N2 List client authentication (SASL) plugins. Strength of the SASL security layer in bits. min=N1 specifies the minumum strength to use (1 => integrity protection). max=N2 specifies the maximum strength to use. Only SASL mechanisms which support security layer with strength M such that N1 <= M <= N2 will be shown. -e ssf=N,id=ID Assume that an external security layer (e.g. TLS) with N-bit strength is installed. The ID is the authentication identity used by the external security layer. -m MECHS Limit listed SASL plugins to the ones included in the MECHS (space separated) list. -x AUXPROP_MECHS Limit listed auxprop plugins to the one listed in the AUXPROP_MECHS (space separated) list. -f FLAGS Set security flags. FLAGS is a comma separated list of one or more of the following security flags: noplain (SASL mechanism doesn't send password in the clear during authentication), noactive (require protection from active attacks), nodict (require mechanisms which are secure against passive dictionary attacks), forwardsec (require forward secrecy), passcred (require mechanisms that can delegate client credentials), maximum (require all security flags). -p PATH Specifies a colon-separated search path for plugins.

SASL-SAMPLE-SERVER(8) System Manager's Manual SASL-SAMPLE-SERVER(8) NAME
sasl-sample-server -- Sample server program for demonstrating and testing SASL authentication. SYNOPSIS
sasl-sample-server [-b min=N,max=N] [-e ssf=N,id=ID] [-m MECH] [-f FLAGS] [-i local=IP,remote=IP] [-p PATH] [-d DOM] [-u DOM] [-s NAME] [-l] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the sasl-sample-server command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. sasl-sample-server is a program to demonstrate and test SASL authentication. It implements the server part, and the client part is avail- able as sasl-sample-client. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. -b Number of bits to use for encryption. min=N minimum number of bits to use (1 => integrity) max=N maximum number of bits to use -e Assume external encryption. ssf=N external mech provides N bits of encryption id=ID external mech provides authentication id ID -m Force use of MECH for security. -f Set security flags. noplain require security vs. passive attacks noactive require security vs. active attacks nodict require security vs. passive dictionary attacks forwardsec require forward secrecy maximum require all security flags passcred attempt to pass client credentials -i Set IP addresses (required by some mechs). local=IP;PORT set local address to IP, port PORT remote=IP;PORT set remote address to IP, port PORT -p Colon-separated search path for mechanisms. -s Service name passed to mechanisms. -d Local server domain. -u User domain. -l Enable server-send-last.
