I don't have Fedora Directory Server installed (yet). However, there's one feature from OpenLDAP that is must-have before even attempting to play with FDS. In OpenLDAP, if I use string like "{SASL}username@REALM" as a value for userPassword attribute, and have "pwcheck_method: saslauthd" in /usr/lib/sasl2/slapd.conf, then OpenLDAP will use saslauthd to authenticate the user (passing it "username@REALM" and whatever password user supplied). I've read that FDS supports SASL, but does it support this feautre too?
Nope. Is this a currently supported OpenLDAP feature ? I ask because I vaguely remember some feature like this being dropped on the basis that it was a stop-gap until real SASL support was implemented. But I may well be thinking of some similar but different feature. FDS does support SASL but I think you'd need to do some extra work to get it to work with the saslauthd plugin. GSSAPI and EXTERNAL are the only two 'officially' supported SASL mechanisms. -- Fedora-directory-users mailing list Fedora-directory-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users
