sasl_authorize_t - The SASL authorization callback


SYNOPSIS

       #include <sasl.h>

       int sasl_authorize_t(void *context,
                           const char *auth_identity,
                           const char *requested_user,
                           const char ** user,
                           const cahr ** errstr);


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 tmartin (with  all  of
       tmartin'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.
