The tool for testing SASL-Authentication "testsaslauthd" uses sockets:
strace:
socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 3
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/saslauthd/mux"}, 110) = 0
writev(3, [{"\0\4root\0\4root\0\4imap\0\0", 20}], 1) = 20
read(3, "\0\2", 2) = 2
read(3, "OK", 2)
and it is successfully (whatever service is set [-s servicename] or without
-s).
But how it makes libvirt? I can't trace it and i don't see it in
source-code of remote.c/h
understandable?
