NAME
sasl_server_init - Cyrus SASL documentation
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h> int sasl_server_init(const sasl_callback_t *callbacks, const char *appname);
DESCRIPTION
sasl_server_init(3) sasl_callback_t *callbacks, const char *appname); sasl_server_init(3) initializes SASL. It must be called before any calls to sasl_server_start, and only once per process. This call initializes all SASL mechanism drivers (e.g. authentication mechanisms). These are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl2 directory but the directory may be overridden with the SASL_PATH environment variable (or at compile time). Parameters o callbacks - specifies the base callbacks for all client connections. See the sasl_callbacks(3) man page for more information. o appname - is the name of the application. It is used to find the default configuration file.
RETURN VALUE
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success. Other return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the authentication session should be quit.
