Hi, thank you, now I understand what happen underlying the process. As you said, then saslauthd do no work in my case. It is just a SASL plugin of LDAP client works here. And now, I have to configure phpldapadmin but I do not know what value I should assign to SASL realm option, and so on. I assumed that I should have a saslauthd for authentication via Kerberos, etc. But I am not sure. Please, could you give me some hint to using SASL in my case ?
thank you.
2008/7/1 Buchan Milne bgmilne@staff.telkomsa.net:
OpenLDAP does not use Kerberos directly, instead it uses SASL. If your LDAP server has a Kerberos service principal, and has the SASL GSSAPI plugin installed and enabled, then the OpenLDAP client utilities will try appropriate SASL mechanisms (if the user has a ticket).
So, you are using SASL to authenticate via Kerberos your users when accessing the LDAP service.
