Summary : SASL Authentication framework
Description :
SASL is a generic mechanism for authentication used by several network
protocols. *Authen::SASL* provides an implementation framework that all
protocols should be able to share.
The framework allows different implementations of the connection class to
be plugged in. At the time of writing there were two such plugins.
* Authen::SASL::Perl
This module implements several mechanisms and is implemented entirely in
Perl.
* Authen::SASL::XS
This module uses the Cyrus SASL C-library (both version 1 and 2 are
supported).
* Authen::SASL::Cyrus
This module is the predecessor to Authen::SASL::XS. It is reccomended to
use Authen::SASL::XS
By default the order in which these plugins are selected is
Authen::SASL::XS, Authen::SASL::Cyrus and then Authen::SASL::Perl.
If you want to change it or want to specifically use one implementation
only simply do
use Authen::SASL qw(Perl);
or if you have another plugin module that supports the Authen::SASL API
use Authen::SASL qw(My::SASL::Plugin);
