GNU SASL is an implementation of the Simple Authentication and Security Layer
|
|
framework and a few common SASL mechanisms. SASL is used by network servers
|
|
(e.g., IMAP, SMTP) to request authentication from clients, and in clients to
|
|
authenticate against servers.
|
|
|
|
GNU SASL contains a library (`libgsasl'), a command line utility (`gsasl')
|
|
to access the library from the shell, and a manual. The library includes
|
|
support for the SASL framework (with authentication functions and application
|
|
data privacy and integrity functions) and at least partial support for the
|
|
CRAM-MD5, EXTERNAL, GSSAPI, ANONYMOUS, PLAIN, SECURID, DIGEST-MD5, LOGIN,
|
|
NTLM and KERBEROS_V5 mechanisms.
