I don't quite understand, this binds to the ldap server to retrieve the
password. What I would like to do is bind as as the user to authenticate.
Example, if I run:
testsaslauthd -u someone -p example
This would connect to the ldap server as uid=someone,dc-example,dc=com and
authenticate with the example password. If the bind succeeds the
user/password pair is valid and if it fails the user/password pair is
false. This how all of our other services are setup that use ldap for
authentication.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Adi
