I would check manual binding first with ldap-client:

warning: unknown[10.1.70.75]: SASL LOGIN
authentication failed: Connection lost to authentication server

This is not normal and need to be clarified. Maybe the client reject the local certificate or the AD server reject the source from some reason.

Hi All,

I am trying to setup AD auth with dovecot and have tried a lot of options
but still no success.

I am using a bind account for AD authentication and the users are not
posix accounts. I am not using the ssl cert as its not available, so
disabling it. I have used the similar settings with saslauthd+postfix and
it worked, not sure what am I doing wrong with configurations..

My configuration is as follows:

# dovecot --version
2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a)
# dovecot -n
# 2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
