Dear Dovecot developers,
We have several context entries and want to authenticate a user against the whole LDAP server.
However when setting "base = " Dovecot LDAP fails with following message:
Jul 29 10:50:59 nitik1 dovecot: auth: Error: ldap(hendy@staging.member.berbatik.com,127.0.0.1): ldap_search((virtualMail=hendy@staging.member.berbatik.com)) failed: Other (e.g., implementation specific) error
This limits the search to only one base DN, e.g.
base = dc=staging,dc=berbatik,dc=com
The ldap client library is able to search entries using an empty base DN, so it should be possible for Dovecot LDAP to do the same.
An even more elegant solution will be the ability to specify multiple base DNs, but if Dovecot can search the "root DN" (empty string) it would be great.
Thank you.
Hendy
