[nylug-talk] simple authentication with openldap

Hello,

I have a hard time to get this to work.
I want to use saslauthd for simple authentication of slapd.
So far I set up a kerberos instance and I can authenticate against it.
I can get tickets and use that against slapd.
I also configured saslauthd and I can use that for simple password authentication
testsaslauthd -u xxxxxxx -p xxxxxxxxx
works for users in my kerberos realm

now I want a simple password bind to work with ldap too, but I cannot get that to work.


ldapsearch -x -W -D "uid=xxxxx,ou=users=,dc=itcfollmann,dc=com" (uid=xxxxx)

that still uses the password stored in the ldap attribute userPassword.

Any ideas?


Thanks,
Henning
