NAME
sasl_server_new - Create a new server authentication object
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_server_new(const char *service,
const char *serverFQDN,
const char *user_realm,
const char *iplocalport,
const char *ipremoteport,
const sasl_callback_t *callbacks,
unsigned flags,
sasl_conn_t ** pconn);
DESCRIPTION
sasl_server_new() creates a new SASL context. This context will be used
for all SASL calls for one connection. It handles both authentication
and integrity/encryption layers after authentication.
service is the registered name of the service (usually the protocol
name) using SASL (e.g. "imap").
serverFQDN is the fully qualified server domain name. NULL means use
gethostname(). This is useful for multi-homed servers.
user_realm is the domain of the user agent. This is usually not
necessary (NULL is default)
iplocalport is the IP and port of the local side of the connection, or
NULL. If iplocalport is NULL it will disable mechanisms that require
IP address information. This strings must be in one of the following
formats: "a.b.c.d;port" (IPv4), "e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l;port" (IPv6), or
"e:f:g:h:i:j:a.b.c.d;port" (IPv6)
ipremoteport is the IP and port of the remote side of the connection,
or NULL (see iplocalport)
flags are connection flags (see below)
pconn is a pointer to the connection context allocated by the library.
This structure will be used for all future SASL calls for this
connection.
Connection Flags
SASL_SUCCESS_DATA
The protocol supports a server-last send
SASL_NEED_PROXY
Force the use of a mechanism that supports an authorization id
that is not the authentication id.
RETURN VALUE
sasl_server_new() returns an integer which corresponds to one of the
SASL error codes. SASL_OK is the only one that indicates success. All
others indicate errors and should either be handled or the
authentication session should be quit.
