sasl_server_init(3SASL) Simple Authentication Security Layer Library Functions sasl_server_init(3SASL) NAME
sasl_server_init - SASL server authentication initialization SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ] #include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_server_init(const sasl_callback *callbacks, const char *appname); DESCRIPTION
Use the sasl_server_init() interface to initialize SASL. You must call sasl_server_init() before you make a call to sasl_server_start(). sasl_server_init() may be called only once per process. A call to sasl_server_init() initializes all SASL mechanism drivers, that is, the authentication mechanisms. The SASL mechanism drivers are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl directory. PARAMETERS
callbacks Specifies the base callbacks for all client connections. appname The name of the application for lower level logging. For example, the sendmail server calls appname this way: sasl_server_init(srvcallbacks, "Sendmail") RETURN VALUES
sasl_server_init() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error code. ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_server_init() was successful. 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
