Issue ID: 10017
Summary: ldap.conf setting "BINDDN" has no associated
LDAP_OPT_XXX constant for ldap_get_opt ldap_set_opt
Product: OpenLDAP
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needs_review
Severity: normal
Priority: ---
Component: libraries
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
The Configuration file setting "BINDDN" has no associated LDAP_OPT_XXX constant
and is not exposed to the ldap_get_opt / ldap_set_opt API. This is the only
option that is not so accessible and this seems like an oversight.
Option "PORT" is also not exposed but that is deprecated. You could make the
case it shouldn't be.
This setting could obviously be of interest to the Application and I see no
reason for it to be hidden.
Simple applications / tools may not have their own configuration files and
instead rely solely of the ldap.conf file to configure openldap. Such an
application could not easy supply a DN to the "bind" calls but may still wish
to know the value specified in the configuration file.
