I'm using saslauthd to auth with active directory,what config works for me is
ldap_servers: ldap://domain.com:3268/
ldap_filter: (sAMAccountName=%u)
ldap_bind_dn: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ldap_bind_pw: simpleclearpassword

I think the clear password transport in network is dangerous...
How can I use sasl with it?
thx in advance!

If you know of a really effective two way hash, please submit code.

Otherwise you can use sasl and you will not need to specify the password
in saslauthd.conf:

ldap_use_sasl: yes
ldap_server: ldap:///
ldap_mech: DIGEST-MD5
