Hi
Is the ldap server configured for sasl? it would seem that the osx
client tries with sasl and only sasl when that does not work it unbinds
and does not try simple bind, it may see that the ldap server is showing
sasl as a available authentication method but it is not really
available, can you exec login into it? also did you reboot the mac box
after configuring the ldap login?
