The BMC supplied AREA LDAP plugins only support simple binds.

I work for BMC, I don't speak for them.

Subject: SASL-based LDAP Authentication

Hi Folks,

I am trying to get LDAP authentication going on my development server.
I believe that I have everything configured correctly and I can see in the 
plugin logs that the ARS system is actually communicating with the LDAP server. 
My problem is that our LDAP server does not support "ldap_simple_bind". Our 
passwords are not stored in the LDAP server.
My LDAP support folks tell me that I need an LDAP authentication plugin that 
supports "SASL-based LDAP authentication". Do you know if it is possible to 
configure the OOTB AREA LDAP plugin to do this or if there are any other AREA 
LDAP plugins available? Has anyone written their own LDAP authentication plugin 
that they would be willing to share?

Alternatively, I am told that we could support a "PAM authentication module for 
Solaris". Anyone written one of these?

Thanks.
