Hello,

Our application is gonna be available on Linux/Unix and Windows. On
Linux/Unix, i thought i would use Cyrus SASL but then, i couldn't find any
reference of it in MSDN. And looking at the Cyrus mailing list, it looks
like Win support is not done yet, or at least stable.
So, i guess i should use GSS-API, given that SSPI is implemented on Windows
to provide interoperability with GSS-API.

Is my guess OK ?

Christian.
