<h1>Cyrus SASL library, version 2</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.
