Sorry, let me rephrase the question again:
I need define a user /password for sasl but want the authentication at
runtime
be automatic - no explicit promting the user while accessing a tcp socket
with some applications that need authentication (e.g libvirt)
I try : saslpasswd2 -c -p -a libvirt <user>
and it hangs (if i now press Enter it says : "invalid parameter
supplied") . if I avoid the -p flag the above commad works fine and
prompts for password and later when using the tcp (virsh -c
qemu+tcp:...) it prompts for the above defined user/password and
autheticates ok.
But I want without the explicit authentication
The man pages says :
"-p Pipe mode - saslpasswd2 will neither prompt for the password nor
verify that it was entered correctly. This is the default when standard
input is not a terminal. "
In the past (before upgrading of libvirt via rpm) I had the SASL
authentication done automatically without prompting the user at runtime
(virsh qemu+tcp:///system <command> ) and without need to configure that.
Don't know how to restore it .
Any help ?
thanks

I need define a user /password for sasl but want that to do the
verification
automatically no -promting ( or even maybe avoid the verification)
while
using a tcp socket with some applications that need authentication
(e.g
libvirt)
so I try : saslpasswd2 -c -p -a libvirt <user>
and it hangs (if i now press Enter it says : "invalid parameter
supplied") . if I avoid the -p flag the above commad works fine and
prompts for password and later when using the tc p (virsh -c
qemu+tcp:...) it prompts for the above defined user/password and
autheticates ok .
But I want without the prompting
The man pages says
-p Pipe mode - saslpasswd2 will neither prompt for the password nor
verify that it was entered correctly. This is the default when standard
input is not a terminal.
In the past (before some upgrading of libvirt via rpm) the SASL
authentication was done automatically no need for prompting
Don't know how to restore it .
Any help ?
