I've done more testing but I'm still stuck. Anyone have any suggestion as to how I can debug the ldap/saslauthd interaction more?

using the "%u" attribute makes no difference.
What I'm seeing in the tcpdump output is that the uid is being sent in full. In fact, the ldap search is finding the "dn" correctly.
We are using the "userPassword" attribute, and the password is encrypted. I"m not sure what the algo is. But the the thing is that with Auth Plain and Auth Login the password is being send in clear.
I don't see anything in the debug output that helps me know why this is happening.
I'm a bit reluctant to post the tcpdump because that has a lot more info than I'm really prepared to share in public.
Anything else I can share?

To clarify, it is the user supplied password that is getting cut short, and not the ldap_bind_pw password? Are you using a password-hash/olcPasswordHash on the server side, e.g. {CRYPT}? >I'm seeing the same output from saslauthd in /var/log/secure after >directing the auth.debug facility there (in rsyslog). > >The only way I could tell that the saslauthd was sending out only 7 chars >of the password was by looking at the tcpdump of the conversation with the >ldap server. > >(as an FYI for anyone else messing with this on RHEL, I had to disable >selinux because the restrictions wouldn't let postfix talk to a saslauthd >launched from the command line as root; once this is resolved I'll >re-enable selinux). > >________________________________ >From: Dan White <dwhite@xxxxxxx> >Sent: Tuesday, June 5, 2018 8:42 AM >To: Robert Werner >Cc: cyrus-sasl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: Re: Problem using saslauthd against ldap server ... > >On 06/04/18 22:42 +0000, Robert Werner wrote: >>When saslauthd tries to bind with the credentials, it is only sending 7 >>characters of the password.
