sasl_authorize_t(10 July 2001)                                                sasl_authorize_t(10 July 2001)



NAME
       sasl_authorize_t - The SASL authorization callback



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 tmartin (with all of tmartin's rights not roots). A server application should be very care-ful, careful,
       ful, 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.
