Hi,

Is there any workaround way by which we will be able to do a DIGEST-MD5 - SASL
LDAP bind asynchronously?

Howard: Is there a plan to have an asynchronous ldap_sasl_interactive_bind in
the near future? Any time lines for that?

No future plan. It's in CVS as of October 13, so it's already in the past.

Thanks,
Shankar

   Connect has been asynch for years, though an option to configure the
