hi,
I am coding a perl dancer web app that will fetch/write info to an
ldap backend (freeipa.org). The ldap vendor is 389, the old netscape
ldap server.
This backend includes kerberos.
So without sasl, it works great. But i would like to avoid passwords
provided we already have a kerberos infrastructure. And I get this
error:
substr outside of string at
/opt/perl5/perls/perl-5.14.2/lib/site_perl/5.14.4/Authen/SASL/Perl.pm
line 333.
Dancer very helpfully displays that line for me:
my $x = $self->{conn}->encode(substr($_[1], $offset || 0, $bsz));
but this tells me very little.
This is a slightly modified script that binds to the ldap server. I
get an ldap/REALM ticket so I know that piece is working:
use strict;
use warnings;
use Net::LDAP;
use Authen::SASL;
Personally I never found Authen::SASL to work well... There used to be a C
based SASL API that linked to cyrus-sasl for Perl that worked great. But
the pure perl SASL implementation had too many issues for me in addition to
being slow as molasses.
