Hello all First - for reference, I run Mandrake 9.1 PowerPack.
I have a rather complex problem: turns out I recompiled postfix to use SASL2 so I could use saslauthd (the 1.5 SASL libs that come with Mandrake 9.1 don't seem to like saslauthd - can't recall if they ever worked with it or not). Now the can of worms shows itself: when NOT using LDAP (via nss_ldap), Postfix works fine and authenticates beautifully. When LDAP is thrown into the mix (at ANY level) Postfix goes insane with segfaults. Upon further checking it seems libldap uses libsasl7, but NOT libsasl2 (the one that Postfix uses). I tried recompiling LDAP to use libsasl2 (OpenLDAP 2.0.27), but no luck - won't work with it. I haven't tried the OpenLDAP 2.1.X branch yet and I don't mean to just yet, cuz it would mean I'd have to maintain it for security updates. But it is an option. I don't even know if that branch uses SASL2 or what. So my problem is that both versions of SASL libraries are getting mixed up. I'm no genius, but I KNOW this tends to be a problem in general. My question is: am I totally screwed? Will I be forced to go to OpenLDAP 2.1.X and recompile EVERYTHING that touches LDAP (especially hoping that 2.1.X is backward-compatible with 2.0.X)? HELP!!!
