sasl_server_init(3) -- Linux man page
NAME
sasl_server_init - SASL server authentication initialization
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl/sasl.h>
int sasl_server_init(const sasl_callback_t *callbacks,
const char *appname);
DESCRIPTION
sasl_server_init()
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 overriden with the
SASL_PATH enviornment variable (or at compile time).
callbacks
specifies the base callbacks for all client connections. See
the sasl_callbacks man page for more information.
appname
is the name of the application. It is used for where to find the
default configuration file.
RETURN VALUE
sasl_server_init 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.
