✨ SASL-SAMPLE-SERVER(8) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for sasl-sample-server, section 8 of the System Manager's Manual 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

sasl-sample-server — the sample server program that's out here demonstrating and testing SASL authentication, fr fr 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

sasl-sample-server [-b min=N,max=N] [-e ssf=N,id=ID] [-m MECH] [-f
FLAGS] [-i local=IP,remote=IP] [-p PATH] [-d DOM] [-u DOM] [-s
NAME] [-l]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this manual page documents the sasl-sample-server command, briefly, like a lil vibe check 👑

This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Not me writing docs the upstream never bothered with 💅

sasl-sample-server is a program to demonstrate and test SASL authentication. It implements the server part, and the client part is available as sasl-sample-client. They're a matching set, iykyk 💞

🌈 OPTIONS 🌈

A summary of options is included below. Buckle up, there's a whole squad 🎀

• -b — Number of bits to use for encryption. encryption bits bestie, we love a security moment 🔥
  • min=N — minimum number of bits to use (1 => integrity)
  • max=N — maximum number of bits to use
• -e — Assume external encryption. it's giving "the encryption is coming from outside the house" ✨
  • ssf=N — external mech provides N bits of encryption
  • id=ID — external mech provides authentication id ID
• -m — Force use of MECH for security. no negotiating, we're picking this one, periodt 💅
• -f — Set security flags. pick your fighter, there's a whole menu:
  • noplain — require security vs. passive attacks
  • noactive — require security vs. active attacks
  • nodict — require security vs. passive dictionary attacks
  • forwardsec — require forward secrecy
  • maximum — require all security flags (all of them!! every single one, the whole buffet 🍓)
  • passcred — attempt to pass client credentials
• -i — Set IP addresses (required by some mechs). some mechs simply must know where you're at 🗺️
  • local=IP;PORT — set local address to IP, port PORT
  • remote=IP;PORT — set remote address to IP, port PORT
• -p — Colon-separated search path for mechanisms.
• -s — Service name passed to mechanisms.
• -d — Local server domain.
• -u — User domain.
• -l — Enable server-send-last.

heads up bestie, the -i bits in the synopsis use commas (local=IP,remote=IP) and the -i sub-options down here use semicolons (local=IP;PORT, remote=IP;PORT). copy them exactly as written, don't be out here improvising 🙈
