I am still having an issue trying to use LDAP authentication
with a simple bind.
I have
[root@roadrunner ~]# rpm -qa|grep sasl
cyrus-sasl-lib-2.1.22-4
cyrus-sasl-2.1.22-4
cyrus-sasl-devel-2.1.22-4

and the the following configuration

# Sample security restrictions
# Require integrity protection (prevent hijacking)
# Require 112-bit (3DES or better) encryption for updates
# Require 63-bit encryption for simple bind
# security ssf=1 update_ssf=112 simple_bind=64
# Sample access control policy:
# Root DSE: allow anyone to read it
# Subschema (sub)entry DSE: allow anyone to read it
# Other DSEs:
# Allow self write access
# Allow authenticated users read access
# Allow anonymous users to authenticate
# Directives needed to implement policy:
#access to dn.base="" by * read
#access to dn.base="cn=Subschema" by * read
#access to *
# by self write
# by users read
# by anonymous auth
#
# if no access controls are present, the default policy
# allows anyone and everyone to read anything but restricts
# updates to rootdn. (e.g., "access to * by * read")
#
# rootdn can always read and write EVERYTHING!

I have a similar configuration running with much older versions of
openldap/sasl.
The objective is to have my imapd/smtp server autheticate users
using uid/userPassword from my LDAP database in PLAINTEXT with TLS.
The uid in my LDAP database is simple the username without any domain
attached. The userPassword is in {CRYPT} in the LDAP database.
I have the certificates installed and working and an ldapsearch
ldapsearch -x -W -ZZ -b 'dc=cabm.rutgers,dc=edu' -H ldap:/// -D
'cn=roadrunner.cabm.rutgers.edu,dc=cabm.rutgers,dc=edu' '(objectclass=*)'
asks for the rootdn password and produces the listing.
When I try the testsaslauthd with a uid/userPassword from my LDAP databse,
however, the authentication fails ...
testsaslauthd -u shelley -p mypassword
0: NO "authentication failed"
and in /var/log/secure ...
Dec 4 09:56:18 roadrunner saslauthd[6164]: Authentication failed for
shelley: Bind to ldap server failed (invalid user/password or insufficient
access) (-7)
Dec 4 09:56:18 roadrunner saslauthd[6164]: do_auth : auth
failure: [user=shelley] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=ldap]
[reason=Unknown]
and in the debug from -d 128 ldap log ...
=> access_allowed: auth access to
"cn=roadrunner.cabm.rutgers.edu,dc=cabm.rutgers,dc=edu" "userPassword"
requested
=> access_allowed: backend default auth access granted to "(anonymous)"
I allowed the default acls for LDAP, which should allow the rootdn to bind
and verify the password.
What is the issue here, the ldap_filter? I do not have virtual domains,
just a single domain. I have the following in
/etc/imapd.conf
[root@roadrunner etc]# cat /etc/imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/lib/imap
