NAME

mupdatetest - Cyrus IMAP documentation

Interactive MUPDATE test program

SYNOPSIS

mupdatetest [ -p port ] [ -m mechanism ] [ -a userid ] [ -u userid ]


    [ -k num ] [ -l num ] [ -r realm ] [ -f file ] [ -n num ]


    [ -q ] [ -c ] [ -i ] [ -v ] [ -w passwd ] [ -o option=value ] hostname

DESCRIPTION

mupdatetest is a utility that allows you to authenticate to a MUPDATE server and interactively issue commands to it. Once authenticated you may issue any MUPDATE command by simply typing it in. It is capable of multiple SASL authentication mechanisms and handles encryption layers transparently. This utility is often used for testing the operation of a mupdate server. Note that you must be an admin in order to authenticate to an mupdate server.

OPTIONS

Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to mupdate as defined in /etc/services.

Force mupdatetest to use mechanism for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism supported by the server is chosen. Specify login to use the LOGIN command instead of AUTHENTICATE.

Userid to use for authentication; defaults to the current user. This is the userid whose password or credentials will be presented to the server for verification.

Userid to use for authorization; defaults to the current user. This is the userid whose identity will be assumed after authentication.

NOTE:

This is only used with SASL mechanisms that allow proxying (e.g. PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5).



Minimum protection layer required.

Maximum protection layer to use (0=none; 1=integrity; etc). For example if you are using the KERBEROS_V4 authentication mechanism specifying 0 will force imtest to not use any layer and specifying 1 will force it to use the integrity layer. By default the maximum supported protection layer will be used.

Specify the realm to use. Certain authentication mechanisms (e.g. DIGEST-MD5) may require one to specify the realm.

Pipe file into connection after authentication.

Number of authentication attempts; default = 1. The client will attempt to do SSL/TLS session reuse and/or fast reauth (e.g. DIGEST-MD5), if possible.

Enable MUPDATE COMPRESSion (after authentication).

Enable challenge prompt callbacks. This will cause the OTP mechanism to ask for the the one-time password instead of the secret pass-phrase (library generates the correct response).

Don't send an initial client response for SASL mechanisms, even if the protocol supports it.

Verbose. Print out more information than usual.

Password to use (if not supplied, we will prompt).

Set the SASL option to value.
