Hi, dear developers!
I have two passdb sections. The first one is PostgreSQL and the second one is LDAP. In the first passdb (SQL) I wrote ˋpassword_queryˋ with ˋ... 'uid=life,is=good' AS "dn" ...ˋ part. When I run ˋdoveadm auth test usernameˋ it shows correct variable value in ˋextra fields: dn=uid=life,is=goodˋ. Awesome.
In the second passdb (LDAP) I wrote ˋauth_bind_userdn = %{passdb:dn}ˋ. And here comes the problem.
Wireshark shows bindRequest as ˋuid\3Dlife\2Cis\3Dgoodˋ. This is an unexpected behavior.
Why Dovecot in LDAP request ˋ=ˋ replaces with ˋ\3Dˋ and ˋ,ˋ replaces with ˋ\2Cˋ? How can I avoid such variable expand behavior?
Best.
For safety reasons. If you can return it as life.is.good you can write auth_bind_userddn = uid=%D{passdb:dn}
