Use 'pluginviewer' to view your sasl mechanisms. saslauthd, and the
authentication backend you choose, are orthogonal to the sasl mechanisms
you have installed.

See:

http://www.cyrussasl.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/components.php
http://www.cyrussasl.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/options.php

for a description of how these components fit together, and how to
configure your server.
