Gordon Sim commented on PROTON-950:
-----------------------------------
What is the intended behaviour when cyrus is not available on the platform in
question? Would PLAIN be allowed over a non-SSL connection in that case? To me
that seems non-intuitive from the client's perspective.
> SASL PLAIN over cleartext should be supported

> Key: PROTON-950
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-950
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: proton-c
> Affects Versions: 0.10
> Reporter: Ted Ross
> Assignee: Andrew Stitcher
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.10
>
>
> In the current 0.10 alpha, if SASL PLAIN is selected, it will only work if
> the connection is encrypted (using SSL). This is a surprising change of
> behavior from earlier versions of Proton and it's arguable that a security
> policy like that should be left to the application using the Proton library.
