// SSecurity - class on the server side for handling security handshaking.  A
// derived class for a particular security type overrides the processMsg()
// method.

// processMsg() is called first when the security type has been decided on, and
// will keep being called whenever there is data to read from the client.  It
// should return false when it needs more data, or true when the connection has
// been successfully authenticated.  In the event of authentication failure an
// AuthFailureException should be thrown - this will result in a "failed"
// security result being sent to the client with the str() from the exception
// being sent as the reason.  Any other type of failure should be indicated by
// some other kind of exception which will cause the connection to be aborted.
//
// processMsg() must never block (or at least must never block until the client
// has been authenticated) - this is to prevent denial of service attacks.
// Note that the first time processMsg() is called, there is no guarantee that
// there is any data to read from the SConnection's InStream, but subsequent
// calls guarantee there is at least one byte which can be read without
// blocking.
//
// getType() should return the secType value corresponding to the SSecurity
// implementation.
