[jdev] tls + plain sasl not working

[Adrian Adrian]

Good point. 
  One more question:  In which format should I send the base64 information ? 
  I tried : 
  <auth  xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-sasl"mechanism="PLAIN">'+Base64.Encode("<username>adi</username><password>secret</password>")+"</auth>
  
I guess the nodes <username> and <password> are not the  right ones but I can't find anywhere the right syntax for the auth  node. 
  
  Thank you.

<auth xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-sasl"
mechanism="PLAIN">{base64 data here}</auth>
  

That's the way PLAIN works,  DIGEST-MD5 doesn't have an initial client
to server payload, so that's why it's empty in the examples.
