Hello,I have apache-2.0.52 up and running and authentication via mod_auth_ldap (the one distributed with apache) works like a charm.
However, as apache and the LDAP server (openldap-2.1.30) are running on the same machine, I'd like apache to connect to the LDAP directory via *NIX sockets (the socket file /var/run/openldap/slapd.sock).
Normally -- and this is how all other services on this machine do it -- I have socket style URIs to connect, e.g.:
ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fslapd.sock/ dc=example,dc=com/?uid?sub?(objectClass=posixAccount)Unfortunately, apache seems to ignore such URIs and wets its pants with a "cannot bind" error message.
My question is: Are socket connections supported?The strange thing about this is that looking at the source code, there are some references to ldapi:// style URIs, but I can't get it to work.
If they are, please (with sugar on top) someone point me on the docs I obviously missed. If not, when will they come?
