Package: dovecot
Version: 1.0.5-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi there,
I have an (admittedly baroque) authentication mechanism for LDAP, with
some users being system users and some being in LDAP, although in many
possible trees. In order to handle this reasonably smoothly, I've
written an auth helper script.
I am trying to transition to SSL based auth for at least the system
users, but I've found this to be impossible for now. There is currently
a mechanism to fail authentication for users that prevent an invalid
client cert, which is good, but too strong for my needs. I'd like to
just allow verified clients to log in without sending a password if they
have a working cert.
Ideally, I'd like to do this by checking an environment variable in the
script (SSL_CLIENT_VERIFIED ?) and proceeding without an auth check.
Admittedly, the client will still need to send something to proceed from
the master to the auth process, but I could at least get down to sending
USER '' and PASS '', and just get the CN out the cert.
Perhaps this is just a crazy idea, but it seems reasonable at the
moment.
Thanks,
