Hi All,
Is it possible to do simple authentication - non SASL - using LDAPS without explicitly passing "-x" option with ldapclient commands like ldapsearch, ldapadd and etc... Is it possible by making any changes in /etc/ldap.conf or /etc/ldap/ldap.conf or /etc/sysconfig/ldap. I believe this is hardcoded. If you anybody have any idea on how this can be accomplised, please share with me.
You don't need -x, as long as I remember, if you build the clients without SASL support. Or, if that's annoying you so much, you can create a shell alias that adds -x for you (in bash: alias ldapsearch="ldapsearch -x").
