@ -48,6 +48,17 @@ a client TLS certificate to be configured, so that SASL/EXTERNAL may
be used between the SASL server and the LDAP server. This is the most
optimal way to use this plugin when the servers are on separate machines.
Note: this plugin is not for use with slapd itself. When OpenLDAP is
built with SASL support, slapd uses its own internal auxprop module.
By default, without configuring anything else, slapd will fail to load
the ldapdb module when it's present. This is as it should be. If you
don't like the "auxpropfunc: error -7" message that is sent to syslog
by slapd, you can stop it by creating /usr/lib/sasl2/slapd.conf with:
auxprop_plugin: slapd
which will force the SASL library to ignore all other auxprop modules.
This plugin has been in use for over a year at many sites with good
results. If you have questions or problems, please send feedback via
the openldap-software mailing list.
