Hello,

I'm looking into upgrading my ldap server to 2.1.
In 2.1 of openldap they no longer allow you to bind to a DN w/ a null
password and get anon access (you need to use a null DN as well):

sjh% ldapsearch -x -h server -D ou=People,dc=foo,dc=com -W uid=sjh
Enter LDAP Password: 
ldap_bind: DSA is unwilling to perform
        additional info: unauthenticated bind (DN with no password) disallowed

autofs binds in this way: (lookup_ldap.c line 96)
  /* Connect to the server as an anonymous user. */
  rv = ldap_simple_bind_s(ldap, ctxt->base, NULL);

Is this done for a reason, or is it historical?
