Normally the OpenLDAP utils follow referrals anonymously, even if the
user supplied credentials. The attached patch adds an option, so the
user can supply a chase type (with credentials or anonymously).
From my changelog:
* Add -B (rebind type) option to change referral chasing rebinds:
+ anon = old behavior (anonymous rebind)
+ cred = use credentials for rebind

P.S. I also have ports of this patch for 2.2 and 2.4, if needed
Sorry about the delay in responding.
If you have not already done so, could you file this patch as an upstream
ITS? We don't really have the resources to maintain functionality patches
to the upstream source and upstream is generally quite responsive about
incorporating or critiquing patches. They do, however, really want patch
submissions directly from the author of the patch rather than forwarded by
the Debian maintainers.
You can submit your patch at:
http://www.openldap.org/its/
with the "New Issue Report" button.
If you have already submitted this patch upstream, could you let us know
the ITS number so that we can update the Debian bug metadata accordingly?
Following up on this old feature request. Do you remember whether you
ever submitted this upstream as Russ suggested? I haven't found it in
the ITS.
If you didn't, and still wish to do so, please follow the guidelines for
contributing:

thank you,
Ryan
