7.14. Using SASL with LDAP Clients
Directory Server uses SASL as an alternative TLS/SSL, particularly for environments which are using Kerberos to implement single sign-on. Directory Server allows user to use SASL to authenticate and bind to the server. This includes LDAP tools like
ldapsearch and ldapmodify. For example:
ldapsearch -O noplain,minssf=1,maxbufsize=512 -Y GSSAPI -U "dn:uid=jsmith,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -R EXAMPLE.COM ...
Using SASL with the LDAP client tools is described in Section A.3, “Using SASL with LDAP Client Tools”.
Note
SASL proxy authorization is not supported in Directory Server; therefore, Directory Server ignores any SASL
authzid value supplied by the client.
