Hello,
This report is invalid. The documentation clearly states:
bind_anon_cred allows anonymous bind when credentials are not empty (e.g.
when DN is
empty).
I.e., bind_anon_cred allows you to bind with a ldapsearch -W or -w flag,
but no -D flag provided.
You may be looking for:
bind_anon_dn allows unauthenticated (anonymous) bind when DN is not
empty.
Which allows one to bind anonymously rather than as a user, if the DN is
specified.
I.e., if using ldapsearch, ldapsearch -D DN without a -W or -w would allow
the bind to occur as an anonymous connection.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Quanah
