All Implemented Interfaces:

Command

public class AuthCommand
extends AbstractCommand

3.11. The AUTH Command

AUTH username authentication-string The client can authenticate itself to the server using a username and password. The authentication-string will be computed as in the APOP protocol discussed in [RFC1939]. Briefly, the authentication-string is the MD5 checksum of the concatenation of the msg-id (obtained from the initial banner) and the "shared secret" that is stored in the server and client configuration files. Since the user does not have to type this shared secret when accessing the server, the shared secret can be an arbitrarily long passphrase. Because of the computational ease of computing the MD5 checksum, the shared secret should be significantly longer than a usual password.
