SASL_CHECKPASS(3)		  Cyrus	SASL		     SASL_CHECKPASS(3)

NAME
       sasl_checkpass -	Cyrus SASL documentation

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<sasl/sasl.h>

       int sasl_checkpass(sasl_conn_t *conn,
			const char *user,
			unsigned userlen,
			const char *pass,
			unsigned passlen);

DESCRIPTION
       int sasl_checkpass(sasl_conn_t *conn,

       const char *user,

       unsigned	userlen,

       const char *pass,

       unsigned	passlen)
	      sasl_checkpass   will check a plaintext password.	This is	needed
	      for protocols that had a login method  before  SASL (for	 exam-
	      ple   the	 LOGIN	command	in IMAP). The password is checked with
	      the pwcheck_method. See sasl_callbacks(3)	  for  information  on
	      how this parameter is set.

RETURN VALUE
       sasl_checkpass  returns an integer which	corresponds to one of the fol-
       lowing codes. SASL_OK indicates that the	authentication	is   complete.
       All   other   return codes indicate errors and should either be handled
       or the  authentication session  should  be  quit.   See	sasl_errors(3)
       for meanings of return codes.

CONFORMING TO
       RFC 4422
