Description

The Cyrus SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer) Library v2.

SASL is the Simple Authentication and Security Layer, a method for adding authentication support to connection-based protocols. To use SASL, a protocol includes a command for identifying and authenticating a user to a server and for optionally negotiating protection of subsequent protocol interactions. If its use is negotiated, a security layer is inserted between the protocol and the connection.

Available flavors: db4 - use Berkeley DB v4 for SASLDB (instead of ndbm) gssapi - enable Kerberos support with GSSAPI ldap - enable LDAPDB auxprop plugin and LDAP enabled saslauthd mysql - enable MySQL SQL auxprop plugin pgsql - enable PostgreSQL SQL auxprop plugin sqlite3 - enable SQLite3 SQL auxprop plugin
