Summary: The PLAIN SASL bind does expect a DN in the authcid
field. We should allow the definition of an AT
Key: DIRSERVER-1817
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1817
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
Priority: Minor
Right now, we are expecting the user to provide a full DN in the authcid part
of the SASL PLAIN bind. It would be very convenient to allow the user to
provide a simple name, and to configure the server to look at a specific AT to
fetch the entry.
For instance, we can decide that the uid Attribute is the one to look for when
searching the authcid. We will then do a search for (uid=<authcid>) and check
the userPassword from the found entry.
Another option : we could ad dn: for DN values, and u: for plain text values
(with a default to u:).
The AttributeType to use should be configurable.
