Cyrus SASL + LDAP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

Not strictly a Fedora issue. 

I'm trying to get my head around the following configuration:

I want to setup Cyrus SASL such that it will look up a OpenLDAP
directory tree to retrieve the password for authentication. Cyrus SASL
and OpenLDAP will provide authentication services for Cyrus IMAP as well
as Postfix. 

From Googling about for the last 3 hours, I have been able to gather
that I should define the following inside /etc/saslauthd.conf:
ldap_servers
ldap_bind_dn
ldap_bind_pw
ldap_search_base

But this will only work if the username is a UID in the tree. For my
purposes, I need SASL to look up the mail attribute and get the
corresponding password. 

Is there a parameter that will allow me to define a LDAP search string?

Thanks in advance !
