To test this you want to use cyrus_sasl_sample_client and cyrus_sasl_sample_server in your case they emulate the ldap client and ldap server. saslauthd is a backend daemon for the sasl libs which is used more like a plugin which the sasl_libs call. You really want something more along the lines of: cyrus_sasl_sample_server -p 389 -s ldap -m GSSAPI cyrus_sasl_sample_client -p 389 -s ldap -m GSSAPI localhost On Thu, 4 Sep 2008, Ric wrote: > I'm working on getting SASL setup for use in OpenLADP+Kerberos. > > I've got Cyrus SASL installed from repos on OpenSuse, > > saslauthd -v > saslauthd 2.1.22 > authentication mechanisms: getpwent kerberos5 pam rimap shadow > ldap > > I'm reading the "Configuring GSSAPI and Cyrus SASL" doc > (.../gssapi.html). > > The tutorial states: > > "The command-line used for sample-server needs to specify the > GSSAPI service name and the location of the plug-ins; your sample > command line might look something like this: > > ./sample-server -s host -p ../plugins/.libs > > on UNIX" > > Checking the server options, > > /usr/bin/cyrus_sasl_sample_server --help > /usr/bin/cyrus_sasl_sample_server: invalid option -- '-' > usage: server [-p port] [-s service] [-m mech] > > "-p" refers to "port".
