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. .SH RETURN VALUE .sp SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. \fBSASL_OK\fP indicates success. .SH SEE ALSO .sp sasl(3), sasl_callbacks(3) .SH AUTHOR The Cyrus Team .SH COPYRIGHT 1993-2016, The Cyrus Team .\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. .
