Hi,
Does Cyrus IMAPd 2.3.1 supports ldap authorization trought ptloader? The
configuration parameters "--with-auth=pts --with-pts=ldap" used in the
2.2.x versions are not displayed in 2.3.1 with ./configure --help. We
use Cyrus IMAPd with ldap authorization for about 2 years and it works
just great. I hope ldap ptloader support will be continued with the
latest Cyrus IMAPd versions!
Authorization mechanism and pts module are runtime options. See
imapd.conf man pages (auth_mech and pts_module) ldap pts module is
available if configure script finds openldap libs (--with-ldap)
A related question:
If openldap is built against SASLv1, will the ldap pts module work?
My question is because when packaging postfix, I had the problem that one
could not build postfix with SASLv2 _and_ LDAP support if the installed
openldap has been built for SASLv1. This has just resulted in segfaults.
Without understanding what exactly the problem was, I fear the same could
be the case with cyrus-imapd as well?
BTW: I know that openldap built against SASLv1 is old, but I still want
the rpm to be suitable for older platforms. If it's a problem I simply
disable ldap pts support for those using openldap/SASLv1.
cyrus imapd configure checks for openldap version and I believe the
supported openldap versions uses saslv2 only.
