SASL_AUTHORIZE_T(3) Cyrus SASL SASL_AUTHORIZE_T(3)
NAME
sasl_authorize_t - Cyrus SASL documentation
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_authorize_t(void *context,
const char *requested_user, unsigned alen,
const char *auth_identity, unsigned alen,
const char *def_realm, unsigned urlen,
struct propctx *propctx)
DESCRIPTION
sasl_authorize_t is used to check whether the authorized user
auth_identity may act as the user requested_user. For example
the user root may wish to authenticate with his credentials but act as
the user mmercer (with all of mmercer's rights not roots). A server
application should be very careful, and probably err on the side of
caution, when determining which users may proxy as whom.
RETURN VALUE
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h
for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
