sasl_client_init - SASL client authentication initializa
tion
SYNOPSIS
#include <sasl.h>
int sasl_client_init(const sasl_callback_t *callbacks);
DESCRIPTION
sasl_client_init() initializes SASL. It must be called
before any calls to sasl_client_start. This call initial
izes all SASL client drivers (e.g. authentication mecha
nisms). These are usually found in the /usr/lib/sasl
directory but the directory may be overriden with the
SASL_PATH enviornment variable. The callbacks parameter
specifies the base callbacks for all client connections.
See the sasl_callbacks man page for more information
RETURN VALUE
sasl_client_init returns an integer which corresponds to
one of the following codes. SASL_OK is the only one that
indicates success. All others indicate errors and should
either be handled or the authentication session should be
quit.
