This password works for me in Dovecot v1.2.0 with OpenLDAP backend and 
auth_bind=yes.


Can you sniff the connection to the AD, if the password is sent to the 
LDAP server and if it is encoded in UTF-8?

Can you use ldapsearch from the mail server successfully, e.g.:

ldapsearch -x -D DOMAIN\\user -W objectclass=\* dn

??

[Dovecot] Password and special caracter

2009-10-01 Thread Gilles Albusac
Problem :  I have a problem with special character in the password. Character 
like ! * é are deleted

My configuration : 
  - a smtp server with Postfix 2.6 and Dovcot 1.1.11. 
  - a windows 2003 server with active directory for accounts and boxes

I  use SMTP / SASL on my postfix 2.6 to authenticate my remote laptop users 
(allow legitimate users to relay mail).

To do that, I use SASL Dovecot fonctionnality and ldap request to verify 
login/password who are declared on a server in Windows 2003 (Active Directory).

It works fine with simple password but not with complex password. I have a 
problem with special character in the password. Character like ! * é are 
deleted before comparaison.

Any idea ?

Regards

Sounds more like SASL than Dovecot.

I had my Dovecot authenticate against DB in UTF8 encoding, and it can  
handle Chinese character for password.


Can your smtp authentication allows special character?

Best,

Doubtful it's an smtp issue, as all authenication over smtp uses base64
I'll see if I can cause the issue in my setup though.

My guess is that it's related to LDAP. Are you using auth_bind=yes?

Seems to all be working for me.

I tested using the password: te...@#$%^*é

My first test was using postfix - dovecot - mysql
This was to verify if sending email via postfix would make it to  
dovecot and though dovecot without getting messed up. Test passed.


My next test was to setup dovecot to authenicate against win2003  
active directory.
This was just to test that from dovecot - ad would work without  
issues. This test also passed.


My LDAP config for dovecot:
hosts = ip_of_ad_server
auth_bind = yes
auth_bind_userdn = DOMAIN\%u
ldap_version = 3
base = dc=domain, dc=com
