NAME

       auth_enumerate - Obtain list of accounts

SYNOPSIS

	   #include <courierauth.h>

       auth_enumerate(int (*callback_func) (const char *, uid_t, gid_t, const char *, const char *, const char *, void *), void *callback_arg);

DESCRIPTION

       auth_enumerate enumerates all of the available accounts.  auth_enumerate repeatedly calls callback_func, once for each account.
       callback_func receives the following arguments:

       o   Account name.

       o   Account's numeric userid.

       o   Account's numeric groupid.

       o   Account's home directory.

       o   Account's mailbox (if defined, may be NULL, which indicates the default mailbox location).

       o   Account's options string (if defined, may be NULL)

       o    callback_arg, verbatim.

       After invoking callback_func for the last account, auth_enumerate invokes callback_func one more time with all parameters set to NULL or 0.

       If auth_enumerate encounters an error it will terminate without calling callback_func with all NULL or 0 parameters. This can be used to
       determine whether a partial list of accounts was received.

       Note
       Some back-end Courier authentication modules do not implement account enumeration, so this function may not be available in all
       configurations.

NAME

       auth_sasl, auth_sasl_ex - SASL implementation

SYNOPSIS

	   #include <courierauthsasl.h>

       int rc=auth_sasl(const char *method, const char *initialresponse, char *(*conversation_func)(const char *, void *)), void *callback_arg,
			char **authtype_ret, char **authdata_ret);

       int rc=auth_sasl_ex(const char *method, const char *initialresponse, const char *externalauth,
			   char *(*conversation_func)(const char *, void *)), void *callback_arg, char **authtype_ret, char **authdata_ret);

DESCRIPTION

       auth_sasl is a generic SASL server implementation.  method is the requested SASL method. At this time auth_sasl knows how to handle the
       following SASL methods:

       o   LOGIN

       o   PLAIN

       o   CRAM-MD5

       o   CRAM-SHA1

       initialresponse is a base64-encoded initial response provided in the client's SASL request.  initialresponse must be NULL if an initial
       response was not included in the client's SASL request.

       conversation_func is the application-implemented SASL conversation callback function.  conversation_func receives a base64-encoded SASL
       prompt, and the callback_arg argument to auth_sasl.  conversation_func must return a buffer containing the base64-encoded reply from the
       client.	auth_sasl will free(3) this buffer when it's done.  conversation_func should return NULL to abort the SASL conversation.

       auth_sasl_ex is a version of auth_sasl that recognizes the EXTERNAL SASL method. It takes an extra parameter, externalauth. This parameter
       should be set to indicate an login that was authenticated via some other means, such as, perhaps, an SSL certificate, or NULL if no
       externally-authenticated identity was established.

       If method is not EXTERNAL, auth_sasl_ex is identical to auth_sasl, and externalauth is ignored. Otherwise, if method is EXTERNAL and
       externalauth is not NULL, auth_sasl_ex returns AUTHSASL_OK, and sets *authtype_ret and *authdata_ret accordingly, so that the subsequent
       invocation of auth_generic() returns authentication information for the login ID specified by externalauth.

RETURNS

       If the SASL conversation succesfully completes, auth_sasl or auth_sasl_ex initializes *authtype_ret and *authdata_ret. They will be set to
       a malloc(3)-ed buffers that can be directly passed as arguments to auth_generic(3)[1]. It is the application's responsibility to free(3)
       these buffers when it's done with them.

       auth_sasl or auth_sasl_ex returns AUTHSASL_OK when the SASL conversation succesfully completes, and *authtype_ret and *authdata_ret are
       succesfully assembled. Any other return indicates an error condition. Right now two error conditions are defined:

       AUTHSASL_ABORTED
	   The SASL conversation was aborted by the client.

       AUTHSASL_ERROR
	   General error (insufficient memory, or some other reason). Check errno for any clues.
