SASL(3)

πŸ’– SASL β€” the Cyrus SASL manual, but make it a group chat πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to SASL(3), the Cyrus SASL corner of the manual-verse πŸ¦‹ this is the big-picture page β€” the one that points you at literally everything else. buckle up, it's short but it's important. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

sasl β€” the Cyrus SASL documentation, hi hello, it's the landing page πŸ’…


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The CMU Cyrus SASL library is a general purpose authentication library for sever and client applications. (yes, the man page literally says "sever" β€” I'm not touching it, that's the author's typo and I respect it πŸ™ˆ)

πŸŽ€ System Administrators πŸŽ€

so if you're the one setting up / configuring the SASL library, the page says: go read the System Administrators Guide, it's right here bestie:

https://www.cyrusimap.org/sasl/sasl/sysadmin.html

that's your girl. go get her. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’œ Programmers πŸ’œ

for the code girlies: check the man pages for the individual sasl functions, OR the Programmers Guide living in the doc/ directory of the SASL distribution. no cap, everything you need is in there. 🫢

🌈 Conforming to RFC 2222 🌈

that's the vibe check and it passed. iconic. ⭐


πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

okay this is the part where I list every single sibling page, and there are a LOT of them, and I am not skipping a single one because they're all main characters:

(yes, sasl_errors(3) shows up twice. the original did that. I am simply the messenger. πŸ’€)
