I'm pretty sure SASL bind with GSSAPI mech is not supported with the Win32
builds. Therefore I changed the subject line to trigger attention of the
relevant readers.
The OpenLDAP libs are usually compiled against heimdal or MIT Kerberos which
both have nothing to do with the Kerberos ticket store of your Windows session.
David tried another approach which would help for this situation. His
experimental attempts to build with wldap32.dll can be found here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1698443&group_id=2072&atid=352072
Any takers? Personally I have some doubts though because especially regarding
SASL the APIs are incompatible.

Raising ldap.SUCCESS in this case is clearly a bug.

These are .egg files built by Torsten. Not sure what he did regarding Kerberos.
Maybe Torsten or Waldemar can comment on the Win32 builds.
Ciao, Michael.
