Synopsis

#include <sasl/sasl.h>

int sasl_getprop(sasl_conn_t *conn,
                int propnum,
                const void ** pvalue);

Description

int sasl_getprop(sasl_conn_t *conn,
int propnum,
const void ** pvalue);

sasl_getprop  gets the value of a SASL property. For example after successful authentication a server may  wish  to know  the  authorization name. Or a client application may wish to know  the  strength  of  the negotiated  security layer.

Parameters
  • conn – is the SASL connection context
  • propnum – is the identifier for the property requested
  • pvalue

    is filled on success. List of properties:

    • SASL_USERNAME     ‐  pointer to NUL terminated user name
    • SASL_SSF ‐ security layer security strength factor,

      if 0, call to sasl_encode(3), sasl_decode(3) unnecessary

    • SASL_MAXOUTBUF    ‐  security layer max output buf unsigned
    • SASL_DEFUSERREALM ‐  server authentication realm used
    • SASL_GETOPTCTX    ‐  context for getopt callback
    • SASL_IPLOCALPORT  ‐  local address string
    • SASL_IPREMOTEPORT ‐  remote address string
    • SASL_SERVICE      ‐  service passed to sasl_*_new
    • SASL_SERVERFQDN   ‐  serverFQDN passed to sasl_*_new
    • SASL_AUTHSOURCE ‐ name of auth source last used, useful for failed

      authentication tracking

    • SASL_MECHNAME     ‐  active mechanism name, if any
    • SASL_PLUGERR      ‐  similar to sasl_errdetail

SASL  callback  functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.

Other return codes indicate errors and should be handled.
