Well, then a change to the code is needed to realize your desidered
behaviour. I think you would need to specify:
- the fixed account credentials used to bind
- the filter to use for authentication (I think we could reuse the "filter
used to lookup user" that is present on 2.4); do you have an example of
filter that you use for authentication on the ldap proxy?
It's not trivial, but not that hard to implement.
If you wish to add have it implemented I think you have some options:
- try to create a patch yourself and issue a pull request
- sponsor someone to implement it for you
