sasl_checkapop - check an APOP challenge or response SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_checkapop(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *challenge, unsigned challen, const char *response, unsigned resplen); DESCRIPTION
The sasl_checkapop() interface checks an APOP challenge or response. APOP is an option POP3 authentication command that uses a shared secret password. See RFC 1939. If sasl_checkapop() is called with a NULL challenge, sasl_checkapop() will check to see if the APOP mechanism is enabled. PARAMETERS
conn The sasl_conn_t for which the request is being made challenge The challenge sent to the client challen The length of challenge response The client response resplens The length of response RETURN VALUES
sasl_checkapop() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK Indicates that the authentication is complete All other error codes indicate an error situation that must be handled, or the authentication session should be quit. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes. ATTRIBUTES

sasl_checkpass(3SASL) Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions sasl_checkpass(3SASL) NAME
sasl_checkpass - check a plaintext password SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_checkpass(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *user, unsigned userlen, const char *pass, unsigned passlen); DESCRIPTION
The sasl_checkpass() interface checks a plaintext password. The sasl_checkpass() interface is used for protocols that had a login method before SASL, for example, the LOGIN command in IMAP. The password is checked with the pwcheck_method. The sasl_checkpass() interface is a server interface. You cannot use it to check passwords from a client. The sasl_checkpass() interface checks the posible repositories until it succeeds or there are no more repositories. If sasl_server_userdb_checkpass_t is registered, sasl_checkpass() tries it first. Use the pwcheck_method SASL option to specify which pwcheck methods to use. The sasl_checkpass() interface supports the transition of passwords if the SASL option auto_transition is on. If user is NULL, check is plaintext passwords are enabled. PARAMETERS
conn The sasl_conn_t for which the request is being made pass Plaintext password to check passlen The length of pass user User to query in current user_domain userlen The length of username. RETURN VALUES
sasl_checkpass() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK Indicates that the authentication is complete All other error codes indicate an error situation that must be handled, or the authentication session should be quit. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes. ATTRIBUTES
