Description George France 2002-03-14 23:38:40 UTC
Description of Problem:

While runing the sasl-sample-server and sasl-sample client the gssapi mechanism
does not appear.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

	cyrus-sasl-1.5.24

How Reproducible:

	Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use kadmin to properly make a host entry in /etc/krb5.keytab
2. type at the command line "sasl-sample-server -s host". You will recieve:
	
	Sending list of 3 mechanism(s)
	S: UExBSU4gTE9HSU4gQU5PTllNT1VT
	Waiting for client mechanism...

3. at a different console / xterm, type "sasl-sample-client -s host -u
<username>", where <username> is an actual user that is part the kerberos
realm.  You will recieve:

	service=host
	Waiting for mechanism list from server...

4. cut and past the "S: UExBSU4gTE9HSU4gQU5PTllNT1VT" into the client, followed
by a <cr>. You will see:

	Choosing best mechanism from: PLAIN LOGIN ANONYMOUS

Expected Results:

	Choosing best mechanism from: GSSAPI LOGIN ANONYMOUS

(on the es45..)

[root@vegeta root]# sasl-sample-server -s localhost
Generating client mechanism list...
Sending list of 4 mechanism(s)
S: R1NTQVBJIFBMQUlOIExPR0lOIEFOT05ZTU9VUw==
Waiting for client mechanism...


[root@vegeta root]# sasl-sample-client -s localhost -u root service=localhost
Waiting for mechanism list from server...
S: R1NTQVBJIFBMQUlOIExPR0lOIEFOT05ZTU9VUw==
Choosing best mechanism from: GSSAPI PLAIN LOGIN ANONYMOUS
....

I believe this is what you were after, the inclusion of the GSSAPI mechanism.
(current version cyrus-sasl-devel-1.5.24-23)

Well Done.

I will try to duplicate your efforts tomorrow, when I am at CRL and have a krb5
server available.
