<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"> <HTML><head> <TITLE>Cyrus SASL library</TITLE> </head> <body> <h1>Cyrus SASL library, version 2.0</h1> <p> SASL (Simple Authentication Security Layer) is an Internet standards-track method for remote computers to authenticate. The Cyrus SASL library makes supporting various SASL mechanisms easy for both client and server writers. <P>The Cyrus project is the implementation of an enterprise mail system by the Carnegie Mellon University Computing Services Department. We are interested in scalable, easy to administer systems. <h2>The Cyrus SASL library distribution</h2> <p><a href="http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/"><b>Cyrus SASL library distribution</B></A> <h2>Documentation</h2> <ul> <li> <a href="readme.html"><b>Read Me First</b></A></li> <li> <a href="install.html"><b>Installation Documentation</b></A></li> <li> <a href="upgrading.html"><b>Information for upgrading from SASLv1</b></A></li> <li> <a href="appconvert.html"><b>SASLv1 to SASLv2 Application Conversion Guide</B></A></li> </ul> <ul> <li> <a href="sysadmin.html">The Cyrus SASL for System Administrators</A></li> <li> <a href="options.html">Options for use with Cyrus SASL</A></li> <li> <a href="programming.html">The SASL Application Programmer's Guide</A></li> <li> <a href="plugprog.html">The SASL Plugin Programmer's Guide</A></li> <li> <a href="advanced.html">Advanced SASL usage</A></li> </ul> <b>Special Platforms</b> <ul> <li> <a href="macosx.html"><b>Mac OS X Build Guide</b></a> <li> <a href="os390.html"><b>OS/390 Build Guide</b></a> <li> <a href="windows.html"><b>Win32 Build Guide</b></a> </ul> <b>RFCs and drafts</b> <ul> <li> <a href="rfc1321.txt">RFC 1321: The MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm</a></li> <li> <a href="rfc1939.txt">RFC 1939: Post Office Protocol - Version 3</a> (APOP/sasl_checkapop)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2104.txt">RFC 2104: HMAC: Keyed-Hashing for Message Authentication</a></li> <li> <a href="rfc2195.txt">RFC 2195: IMAP/POP AUTHorize Extention for Simple Challenge/Response</a> <br> <a href="draft-nerenberg-sasl-crammd5-03.txt"> draft-nerenberg-sasl-crammd5-03: The CRAM-MD5 SASL Mechanism</a> (CRAM-MD5)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2222.txt">RFC 2222: Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL)</a> (KERBEROS_V4) <br> <a href="draft-myers-saslrev-02.txt"> draft-myers-saslrev-02: Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL)</a> (EXTERNAL)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2243.txt">RFC 2243: OTP Extended Responses</a></li> <li> <a href="rfc2245.txt">RFC 2245: Anonymous SASL Mechanism</a> <br> <a href="draft-zeilenga-sasl-anon-01.txt"> draft-zeilenga-sasl-anon-01: Anonymous SASL Mechanism</a> (ANONYMOUS)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2289.txt">RFC 2289: A One-Time Password System</a></li> <li> <a href="rfc2444.txt">RFC 2444: The One-Time-Password SASL Mechanism</a> (OTP)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2595.txt">RFC 2595: Using TLS with IMAP, POP, and ACAP</a> <br> <a href="draft-zeilenga-sasl-plain-01.txt"> draft-zeilenga-sasl-plain-01: Plain SASL Mechanism</a> (PLAIN)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2831.txt">RFC 2831: Using Digest Authentication as a SASL Mechanism</a> <br> <a href="draft-melnikov-rfc2831bis-02.txt"> draft-melnikov-rfc2831bis-02: Using Digest Authentication as a SASL Mechanism</a> (DIGEST-MD5)</li> <li> <a href="rfc2945.txt">RFC 2945: The SRP Authentication and Key Exchange System</a></li> <li> <a href="rfc3174.txt">RFC 3174: US Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA1)</a></li> <li> <a href="draft-burdis-cat-srp-sasl-06.txt"> draft-burdis-cat-srp-sasl-06: Secure Remote Password SASL Mechanism</a> (SRP)</li> <li> <a href="draft-ietf-cat-sasl-gssapi-05.txt"> draft-ietf-cat-sasl-gssapi-05: SASL GSSAPI Mechanisms</a> (GSSAPI)</li> <li> <a href="draft-sasl-login.txt">draft-sasl-login: [Unsupported] LOGIN SASL Mechanism</a> (LOGIN)</li> <li> <a href="draft-newman-sasl-c-api-00.txt"> draft-newman-sasl-c-api-00: The SASL C API</a> (very rough draft)</li> </ul> <b>Other Documentation & Resources</b> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/network/2002/04/09/sasl.html"> Using SASL: Pluggable Security</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/network/2002/04/30/sasl2.html"> Using SASL: CMU's Cyrus SASL Library</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html">FAQ</a> from Sendmail. </li> <li><a href="http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~tjw/srp/ndss.html"> The Secure Remote Password Protocol</a> paper by Thomas Wu</li> <li><a href="http://beepcore-tcl.sourceforge.net/tclsasl.html">TCL extensions for SASL</A></li> </ul> <p><hr><p> <A HREF="http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus">Go</A> to the Project Cyrus Home Page<br> <A HREF="http://asg.web.cmu.edu">Go</A> to the Andrew Systems Group homepage. </body>
