sasl_encode(3SASL)			      Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions				sasl_encode(3SASL)

NAME
sasl_encode, sasl_encodev - encode data for transport to an authenticated host SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_encode(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *input, unsigned inputlen, const char **output, unsigned *outputlen); int sasl_encodev(sasl_conn_t *conn, const struct iovec *invec, unsigned numiov, const char *outputlen); DESCRIPTION
The sasl_encode() interface encodes data to be sent to a remote host for which there has been a successful authentication session. If there is a negotiated security, the data is signed or encrypted, and the output is sent without modification to the remote host. If there is no security layer, the output is identical to the input. The sasl_encodev() interface functions the same as the sasl_encode() interface, but operates on a struct iovec instead of a character buf- fer. PARAMETERS
conn The SASL connection context. input Data. inputlen input length. output The encoded data. output must be allocated or freed by the library. outputlen The length of output. invec A pointer to set of iovec structures. numiov The number of iovec structures in the invec set. RETURN VALUES
sasl_encode() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_encode() or sasl_encodev()was successful. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes. ATTRIBUTES

NAME
sasl_server_step - perform a step in the server authentication negotiation SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_server_step(sasl_conn_t *conn, const char *clientin, unsigned clientinlen, const char **serverout, unsigned *serveroutlen); DESCRIPTION
The sasl_server_step() performs a step in the authentication negotiation. PARAMETERS
conn The SASL context for this connection. clientin The data given by the client. The data is decoded if the protocol encodes requests that are sent over the wire. clientinlen The length of clientin. serverout Set by the library and sent to the client. serveroutlen RETURN VALUES
sasl_server_step() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK The whole authentication completed successfully. SASL_CONTINUE The call to sasl_server_step() was successful, and at least one more step is needed for the authentication. All other error codes indicate an error situation that you must handle, or you should quit the authentication session. See sasl_errors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes. ATTRIBUTES
