Hi All

I'm new to this list.  Just wonder if ietf-sasl
addresses the linkage of authentication to data
security.  Meaning, a user logs on to a system, the
system is able to use the user identity to determine
data access security from LDAP or RDBMS.  Today most
applications can authenticate users but they use
system id to connect to LDAP or RDBMS.  As a result,
they can't link the login ID to Data Access.

Much appreciated for any help.
