SASL_AUTHORIZE_T(3)               Cyrus SASL               SASL_AUTHORIZE_T(3)

NAME
       sasl_authorize_t - Cyrus SASL documentation

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 mmercer (with  all  of mmercer's  rights  not roots). A server
       application should be very careful, 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.
