DESCRIPTION

20       sasl_getprop  gets the value of a SASL property. For example after suc‐
21       cessful authentication a server may  wish  to  know  the  authorization
22       name.  Or  a  client  application  may wish to know the strength of the
23       negotiated security layer.
24
25       conn is the SASL connection object.  propnum is the identifier for  the
26       property  requested and pvalue is filled in on success. List of proper‐
27       ties follows:
28
29       SASL_USERNAME     -  pointer to NUL terminated user name
30       SASL_SSF          -  security layer security strength factor,
31                            if 0, call to sasl_encode, sasl_decode unnecessary
32       SASL_MAXOUTBUF    -  security layer max output buf unsigned
33       SASL_DEFUSERREALM -  server authentication realm used
34       SASL_GETOPTCTX    -  context for getopt callback
35       SASL_IPLOCALPORT  -  local address string
36       SASL_IPREMOTEPORT -  remote address string
37       SASL_SERVICE      -  service passed to sasl_*_new
38       SASL_SERVERFQDN   -  serverFQDN passed to sasl_*_new
39       SASL_AUTHSOURCE   -  name of auth source last used, useful for failed
40                            authentication tracking
41       SASL_MECHNAME     -  active mechanism name, if any
42       SASL_PLUGERR      -  similar to sasl_errdetail
