            Bug ID: 65633
           Summary: mod_authnz_ldap doesn't support SASL EXTERNAL bind to
                    ldap
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.5-HEAD
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: mod_authnz_ldap
          Assignee: bugs@httpd.apache.org
          Reporter: chec...@d6.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Hi, mod_authnz_ldap doesn't support httpd connecting to LDAP servers that
require SASL EXTERNAL authentication using certificates (which provide the
binddn implicitly).  If there's a binddn specified with AuthLDAPBindDN it tries
to use a password, if no binddn it tries anonymous.  

There are a couple related very old bug reports:

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55178
This is on the mod_auth_ldap module, and had the problem of using the _s
synchronous sasl bind function.

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48780
This one is about allowing clients to use certificates, not httpd using certs
to connect.

I'm thinking about adding this to my local version of mod_authnz_ldap to
support some features on my site using ldap-attribute queries.  If you guys are
interested in a patch to add this
long-requested-but-obviously-not-that-high-priority feature, I can do it
"right," if not I'll probably hack it a bit since it'll just be for me.  Let me
know!

Thanks,
Chris
