[Dovecot] Dovecot at Solaris 10 with LDAP : Buggy LDAP library returned wrong fd: 1

Hi,
   
  I have installed openldap on my solaris 10. OpenLDAP shared files are at /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib. Now I can I tell Dovecot to use this files.

Please read this carefully.

The problem you are having is with the LDAP shared library that ships 
with Solaris 10. Sun's library has a bug:

http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6551471
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=4197228

The second link is actually a partial reproduction of a bug 
description from SunSolve, so if you have access to SunSolve, you may 
find more there. It looks like Sun actually fixed this bug in their 
LDAP library for Solaris 8 but they have not done so for Solaris 10.


This bug is completely independent of what LDAP server you use. You 
can work around this bug by installing the OpenLDAP shared libraries 
and linking against them instead of the equivalent Sun library
