.SH NAME
libssh2_userauth_list - list the authentication methods supported by a server
libssh2_userauth_list - list supported authentication methods
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <libssh2.h>
char *
libssh2_userauth_list(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session, const char *username, unsigned int username_len);
libssh2_userauth_list(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session, const char *username,
unsigned int username_len);
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIsession\fP - Session instance as returned by
.BR libssh2_session_init_ex(3)
\fIusername\fP - Username which will be used while authenticating. Note
that most server implementations do not permit attempting authentication
with different usernames between requests. Therefore this must be the
same username you will use on later userauth calls.

\fIusername_len\fP - Length of username parameter.
Send a \fBSSH_USERAUTH_NONE\fP request to the remote host. Unless the
remote host is configured to accept none as a viable authentication
scheme (unlikely), it will return \fBSSH_USERAUTH_FAILURE\fB along with a
listing of what authentication schemes it does support. In the unlikely
event that none authentication succeeds, this method with return NULL. This
case may be distinguished from faily by examining
.BR libssh2_userauth_authenticated(3)
