This is needed for protocols that had a login method before SASL (for example the LOGIN command in IMAP). The password is checked with the pwcheck_method. See sasl_callbacks(3) for information on how this parameter is set. .UNINDENT .SH RETURN VALUE .sp sasl_checkpass returns an integer which corresponds to one of the following codes. \fBSASL_OK\fP indicates that the authentication is complete. All other return codes indicate errors and should either be handled or the authentication session should be quit. See sasl_errors(3) for meanings of return codes. .SH CONFORMING TO .sp \fI\%RFC 4422\fP .SH SEE ALSO .sp sasl(3), sasl_errors(3), sasl_callbacks(3), sasl_setpass(3) .SH AUTHOR The Cyrus Team .SH COPYRIGHT 1993-2016, The Cyrus Team .\" Generated by docutils manpage writer. .
