          We have a dedicated LDAP server and I would like to configure OpenLDAP client in our linux boxes running on centOS 5.3.<br>
I have installed openldap client and changed /etc/openldap/ldap.conf with folllowing info<br>
<br>
BASE    dc=my, dc=net<br>
URI     ldap://<a href="http://10.122.12.13" target="_blank">10.122.12.13</a><br>
<br>
But when I try to run ldapsearch, I get following error<br>
<br>
SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started<br>
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Unknown authentication method (-6)<br>
        additional info: SASL(-4): no mechanism available:<br>
<br>
The objective is anybody having ldap id can login to linux box. At present, I am manually creating individual ids which we want to integrate with LDAP authentication.<br>
I would appreciate your help<br>
