I'm not using sendmail+courier here but as a "1-line" install command it looks like you'd probably want something like pkg_add courier-authlib-ldap courier-imap cyrus-sasl--ldap sendmail--ldap-sasl (The package names above including "--" select one of various flavours; if you leave it out you would usually get to choose from a list presented instead. The names like "courier-authlib-ldap" are modular packages or "multipackages" where the extra support is added by pluggable modules For dovecot and postfix you'd want "pkg_add dovecot-ldap postfix--ldap"; dovecot has its own sasl implementation which is also supported by postfix, config is easier than with cyrus-sasl.
Re: cyrus-sasl/openldap question
Have you looked at OpenBSD's ldapd(8) instead of openldap? It supports SASL PLAIN auth, according to the 6.3 man page. I don't currently use SASL but otherwise have found the config of ldapd to be much simpler than slapd. Yes, last time I had set up OpenLDAP with SASL it was fragile and required a lot of fiddling to get it working. That was on Linux, about 10 years ago. Allan
cyrus-sasl/openldap question
Hi there, it seems to get sasl working with ldap is a lifetime task. Sad thing I had it working but only after adding/deleting packages of the specific versions of cyrus-sasl and I dont know which you really need to get it working in a "clean" setup. So to all the people out there who are running service like sendmail, courier with openldap and sasl could you point to the proper package to use or do in need to really install one package then replace it with another so that just the proper libs are present somewere on the system (this seems kind bad)? And docs on cyrus-sasl are a big fk^ in my opinion but thats another story. regards -- Markus Rosjatfon: +49 351 8107224mail: ros...@ghweb.de G+H Webservice GbR Gorzolla, Herrmann Königsbrücker Str. 70, 01099 Dresden http://www.ghweb.de fon: +49 351 8107220 fax: +49 351 8107227 Bitte prüfen Sie, ob diese Mail wirklich ausgedruckt werden muss!
