I'm staring at line 1473 in clients/tools/common.c of RE24 but I simply don't get it: IMHO in opposite to later call of ldap_sasl_bind() (in a separate else clause starting at line 1490) a msgid is not returned by the API and therefore it seems to me that ldap_result() is not and cannot be called in the SASL part. But as said numerous times: I'm quite ignorant regarding C and I might overlook something. > Not sure about how this could be integrated in python-ldap; my suggestion, > without looking at the code, would be to add/modify python-ldap's call to > ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s() to optionally give access to all results > (resultCode, diagnostics, controls). I'd happily do but I'm not sure how... You can see the call in line 674 here: http://python-ldap.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/python-ldap/python-ldap/Modules/LDAPObject.c?view=markup The var name msgid was a misunderstanding taken over from the code submitted by another contributer years ago. Should be called rc or similar instead. Ciao, Michael.
