Does it mean that when "nsslapd-require-secure-binds" is "on" then
even the anonymous binds should be made by SSL? Maybe there is some
sense in leaving a possibility to have anonymous binds non-SSL and
frocing non-anonymous ones to be secure?
Sorry for the late response, but I was on vacation the last week.
The current patch does force all simple binds, including anonymous, to
use a secure connection. I can see value in allowing anonymous simple
binds over an unencrypted connection, as the main reason for this new
setting is to prevent clear text transmission of passwords. I will
revise the patch to ignore anonymous binds when
nsslapd-require-secure-binds is on unless anyone else has arguments
otherwise.
There are a number of other security related configuration settings that
I plan to add soon, which will provide other ways of dealing with
restricting anonymous operations. One of these features are a switch to
disable any anonymous operations completely. Another is to have a
minimum SSF setting on the server. The only operation we would allow
after first connecting over plain LDAP would be startTLS. If the SSF
then meets the minimum requirement, other operations would be allowed.
