SASL is a method for adding authentication support to connection-based
|
|
protocols. To use SASL, a protocol includes a command for identifying and
|
|
authenticating a user to a server and for optionally negotiating protection
|
|
of subsequent protocol interactions. If its use is negotiated, a security
|
|
layer is inserted between the protocol and the connection.
|
|
|
|
This is the Cyrus SASL plugin that implements the ANONYMOUS authentication
|
|
mechanism.
