SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl [ library ... ]
#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
Use the sasl_server_new() interface to create a new SASL context. This
context will be used for all SASL calls for one connection. The new
SASL context handles both authentication and integrity or encryption
layers after authentication.
PARAMETERS
service The registered name of the service that uses SASL. The
registered name is usually the protocol name, for exam‐
ple, IMAP.
serverFQDN The fully-qualified server domain name. If the value of
serverFQDN is NULL, use gethostname(3C). The serverFQDN
parameter is useful for multi-homed servers.
user_realm The domain of the user agent. The user_realm is usually
not necessary. The default value of user_realm is NULL.
iplocalport
The IP address and port of the local side of the con‐
nection. The value of iplocalport may be NULL. If iplo‐
calport is NULL, mechanisms that require IP address
information are disabled. The iplocalport string must
be in one of the following formats:
o a.b.c.d:port (IPv4)
o [e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l]:port (IPv6)
o [e:f:g:h:i:j:a.b.c.d]:port (IPv6)
The following older formats are also supported:
o a.b.c.d;port (IPv4)
o e:f:g:h:i:j:k:l;port (IPv6)
o e:f:g:h:i:j:a.b.c.d;port (IPv6)
ipremoteport The IP address and port of the remote side of the con‐
nection. The value of ipremoteport may be NULL. See
iplocalport.
callbacks Callbacks, for example: authorization, lang, and new
getopt context.
flags Usage flags. For servers, the flags SASL_NEED_PROXY and
SASL_SUCCESS_DATA are available.
pconn A pointer to the connection context allocated by the
library. This structure will be used for all future
SASL calls for this connection.
RETURN VALUESsasl_server_new() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error
code.
ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_server_new() 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.
