would it be possible to add support for SASL binds to dovecot's LDAP userdb/passdb? This would be a nice feature as it would allow the use of SASL EXTERNAL binds to a local LDAP server, thereby removing the need for storing clear-text passwords in configuration files.
It's already possible with 1.0beta1 and later.
Hi Timo,
thanks for your answer. Can you explain how to enable SASL binds for LDAP in beta1 and onwards? I looked through the source and found no reference to SASL.
Right. Sorry, I missed the "SASL" part in there.
In fact, I even created a patch which I've been using since a while and seems to work quite nicely. It is attached to this email.
And sorry about taking so long to reply. If I don't act on the mail immediately it seems to take nowadays a long time before I start reading back my "unread" mails..
Anyway, your patch was fine and is now committed to CVS.
