NAME
     saslserverstep - perform a step in the server  authentica-
     tion negotiation

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsasl   [ library ... ]
     #include 

     int saslserverstep(saslconnt *conn, const char  *clientin,
          unsigned clientinlen, const char  **serverout,
          unsigned *serveroutlen);


DESCRIPTION
     The saslserverstep() performs a step in the authentication
     negotiation.

PARAMETERS
     conn            The SASL context for this connection.


     clientin        The data given by the client.  The  data  is
                     decoded  if  the  protocol  encodes requests
                     that are sent over the wire.


     clientinlen     The length of clientin.


     serverout       Set by the library and sent to the client.
     serveroutlen

RETURN VALUES
     saslserverstep() returns an integer that corresponds to  a
     SASL error code.

ERORS
     SASLOK          The whole authentication completed success-
                      fully.


     SASLCONTINUE    The call to saslserverstep() was success-
                      ful,  and  at least one more step is needed
                      for the authentication.



     All other error codes indicate an error situation  that  you
     must  handle, or you should quit the authentication session.
     See saslerrors(3SASL) for information on SASL error codes.
