The BMC supplied AREA LDAP plugins only support simple binds. Mark
I work for BMC, I don't speak for them. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of L G Robinson Sent: 23 June 2011 22:31 To: [email protected] 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.
