Folks, I had occasion to investigate making a SASL authentication daemon, such as you would use with imapd or sendmail. This would be a custom replacement for saslauthd or pwcheck. It''s a daemon that listens on a Unix-domain socket and accepts authentication requests from standard services. The idea here is that you can plug in your own authentication/authorization and have it work automatically with a wide range of existing software. Any interest?
I''d certianly be interested in having a look! Francis Cianfrocca wrote:> Folks, I had occasion to investigate making a SASL authentication > daemon, such as you would use with imapd or sendmail.
