returns SASL_OK if the whole negotiation is
successful and SASL_CONTINUE if this step is ok but
at least one more step is needed.
Parameters
|
• |
conn – is the SASL connection context | ||
|
• |
clientin – is the data given by the client (decoded if the protocol encodes requests sent over the wire) | ||
|
• |
clientinlen – is the length of clientin | ||
|
• |
serverout – set by the library and should be sent to the client. | ||

RETURN VALUE
SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_CONTINUE indicates success and that there are more steps needed in the authentication. SASL_OK indicates that the authentication is complete.
Other return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the authentication session should be quit.
