Is SASL always file-based?

[Jiuming Shao]

Hi there,

I have a quick question on SASL configuration and mechanism choice. 

I noticed that for SASL DB, I always need to pass in a username and password (either in a db file or using `saslpasswd2`) as the credential to auth connection. I am wondering if there is any plugins or mechanisms which can accept dynamic credential. 

I don't want to store anything on disk nor send any credential in plain text on wire. I already have a credential provider daemon ready, I can always query it for the latest credential that I should use(shared by both cache client and cache server.).

Thanks in advance!

That all depends on your SASL backend service; you should be able to
connect it to whatever you want.

However actually doing that can be complicated. You'll have to find
tutorials online, since it isn't memcached specific.
