Detailed Description

This structure keeps the information needed to autheticate the user on a remote machine.

The remote machine can either grant or refuse the access according to the information provided. In case the NULL authentication is required, both 'username' and 'password' can be NULL pointers.

This structure is meaningless if the source is not a remote interface; in that case, the functions which requires such a structure can accept a NULL pointer as well.
