DJabber...henSASL(3)

📦 version 0.85, in arch rolling

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is the DJabber...henSASL(3) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's all about DJabberd::SASL::AuthenSASL — she handles SASL negotiation inside DJabberd, periodt.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This plugin gives you straightforward SASL negotiation support inside DJabberd, using Authen::SASL (Authen::SASL::Perl, for now). It's the little companion to the now deprecated iq-auth authentication (XEP-0078).

The recommended usage, bestie, is STARTTLS + SASL-PLAIN. That's the vibe.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

    <VHost yann.cyberion.net>
        <Plugin DJabberd::SASL::AuthenSASL>
            Optional   yes
            Mechanisms PLAIN LOGIN DIGEST-MD5
        </Plugin>
    </VHost>

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅 (the sequel)

Only PLAIN, LOGIN, and DIGEST-MD5 mechanisms are supported for now — same set as in Authen::SASL.

💀 DIGEST-MD5 only supports the "auth" qop (quality of protection), so it's strongly advised to throw TLS into the mix and not solely rely on DIGEST-MD5 — as opposed to "auth-int" and "auth-conf".
