We have OpenLDAP 2.3 running on Linux. It is set up in SASL mode authenticating
against multiple ADs. Everything works fine there, which is our Production env.
We recently installed a new instance of OpenLDAP 2.4.23 running on RedHat Linux
6
in our Dev and QA env. Then, we moved the slapd.conf and slapd-meta.conf file
to
the new instance, and created the required users.
When we run testsaslauthd, we are successfully able to authenticate against the
appropriate AD that the user is under.
testsaslauthd -u ravi@SONEPAR -p secret - WORKS
ldapsearch -x -D uid=ravi,ou=People,ou=company,dc=inside,dc=devserver,dc=com -w
secret
results in: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)
But when we do a ldap search or connect using LDAP Browser, the user is not
able
to get autheticated. We are not able to bind to the OpenLDAP by using the same
credentials.
I get a Invalid credentials err 49, which indcates either credentials are
incorrect,
which in this case its not, or the bind info is incorrect.
I seems as though the user is not able to bind to OpenLDAP 2.4 or it does not
know how
to. When I change the password form {SASL}ralthuru@SONEPAR to a text say
"secret", it works fine.
Here is the log output from the same user authetication in OpenLDAP 2.3 and
OpenLDAP 2.4:

I have searched across many forums, compared the set up on the OpenLDAP 2.3 and
OpenLDAP 2.4 instances and cannot find any differences.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this is appreciated!
