It seems I've never passed a DN to SASL bind functions.

Could someone please elaborate on a valid use-case for argument dn of libldap function ldap_sasl_bind_s()?

I suppose it is only exposed since the protocol message still carries it, even though it is always empty. The client could legally put anything it wants in there; a proper server would still just ignore the DN though.

Thanks. Understood.

I assume the same applies to parameter who of ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s().

Ciao, Michael.
