Authen::SASL::Perl::DIGEST_MD5



NAME

Authen::SASL::Perl::DIGEST_MD5 - Digest MD5 Authentication class


SYNOPSIS

  use Authen::SASL qw(Perl);
  $sasl = Authen::SASL->new(
    mechanism => 'DIGEST-MD5',
    callback  => {
      user => $user, 
      pass => $pass,
      serv => $serv
    },
  );


DESCRIPTION

This method implements the client part of the DIGEST-MD5 SASL algorithm, as described in RFC-2831.

This module only implements the auth operation which offers authentication but neither integrity protection not encryption.

CALLBACK

The callbacks used are:

authname

The authorization id to use after successful authentication

user

The username to be used in the response

pass

The password to be used in the response

serv

The service name when authenticating to a replicated service

realm

The authentication realm when overriding the server-provided default. If not given the server-provided value is used.

The callback will be passed the list of realms that the server provided in the initial response.
