If its use is negotiated, a security layer is inserted between the protocol and the connection. +FEATURES +-------- +The following mechanisms are included in this distribution: +ANONYMOUS +CRAM-MD5 +DIGEST-MD5 +GSSAPI (MIT Kerberos 5 or Heimdal Kerberos 5) +KERBEROS_V4 +PLAIN + +The library can use a Berkeley DB, gdbm or ndbm file on the server +side to store per-user authentication secrets. The utility saslpasswd +has been included for adding authentication secrets to the file. + +PLAIN can either check /etc/passwd, Kerberos V4, use PAM, or the sasl +secrets database. By default PAM is used if PAM is found, then +Kerberos, finally /etc/passwd (non-shadow). This is tweakable in the +configuration file.
