22 sasl_authorize_t is used to check whether the authorized user
23 auth_identity may act as the user requested_user. For example the user
24 root may wish to authenticate with his credentials but act as the user
25 tmartin (with all of tmartin's rights not roots). A server application
26 should be very careful, and probably err on the side of caution, when
27 determining which users may proxy as whom.

30 SASL callback functions should return SASL return codes. See sasl.h for
31 a complete list. SASL_OK indicates success.
