Hi all,
I'm trying to implement checkpassword authentication with a simple bash
script. In some way I can't get the password from file descriptor 3.

#!/bin/bash
read -d '\0' -r -u 3
USERNAME="${REPLY}"
read -d '\0' -r -u 3
PASSWORD="${REPLY}"
if [ -z "${

Hi all,
Is there a way to enforce STARTTLS for all connections, regardless their
