Hi all. I'm interested in changing ldapaliasd.c so that the function search_virtual, in addition to its current functionality, will allow a variable (from the config file) named eg. LDAP_DOMAINQUERY which specifies the LDAP query to be used in fetching the alias for the domain, in much the same way as LDAP_EMAILMAP (in authlib). I want to make the default search string
(&(@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@realm@))

        And if LDAP_SOURCE existed, I'd also add:

(@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@source@)

I'd have it so that it would recognise the things I've specified in @@ signs, and I'd make it so that it would leave \@ alone, for uses like:

(&(@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@@realm@))

(this would include the @ in the realm query). The question I'm particularly interested in is, is Mr. Sam willing to accept a patch that implements this?

Not if I do not understand exactly what's being accomplished here. The current LDAP authenticator is flexible enough to be able to accomodate any reasonable situation.

I don't think I would want to start adding code for every oddball situation that someone might've dreamed up. You need to clearly make a case that shows what specifically the current LDAP authenticator cannot do, and that there are a lot of people that fall into this situation.
