Total newbie here so please be gentle. I'm trying to set up a simple ldap server that uses SASL and Kerberos for authentication. I built OpenLDAP --with-cyrus-sasl and --enable-spasswd. I have the service principal and testsaslauthd works. I used slapadd to build the initial config (from slapd.ldif) and ldapadd to define a rootdn and basedn (basically ou=people and ou=groups). Added a user (me) and a group.

I have a slapd.conf file at /usr/lib/sasl2 that defines keytab: krb5.keytab, mech_list: GSSAPI, pwcheck_method: saslauthd, saslauthd_path: /run/saslauthd/mux.

You should create a service principal i.e. a ldap principal.
