RootDN Login

[Russell Seymour <russell.seymour@turtlesystems.co.uk>]

Good Morning list,

I have successfully built an OpenLDAP Directory with Kerberos and SASL support
and I can access the directory with a user in the Kerberos database, e.g:

	ldaptest@REALM

However what I cannot do is access the directory with the RootDN that I have
specified in the 'slapd.conf' file.  I get back the following error message:

	ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

I may have the wrong end of the stick in that this does not work if SASL is compiled
in.  However if this is the case I would be grateful if someoen would confirm
that for me.

Does anyone have any idea why this maybe, and if so please can you point me in
the right direction.

Thanks,

Russell

PS One thing that I have thought it maybe is that I compiled OpenLDAP without
clear text password support.  However I have another machine with this option
enabled and it does not work either.
