We currently run 4.2.6 with ldaptive:bind-search-authenticator Spring extension 
wired into deployerConfigContext.xml.

With this configuration, the ldaptive connection pool search validator by 
default queries the RootDSE (baseDn=“”). It looks like the validator search 
base DN cannot be configured though the Spring extension. Likewise, with the 
validator search filter and LDAP responseTimeout.

Our LDAP infrastructure happens to have a split directory tree; an LDAP proxy 
unifies the DITs. Consequently for us, the search validator does not hit the 
actual back ends containing credentials, meaning it’s theoretically possible 
(though unlikely) for the search validator to return “success” when all back 
ends are failed. The validateOnCheckOut setting looks to have the same 
limitation (baseDn=“”).

Q: I assume the “old” style of configuring LDAP with Spring Beans is still 
supported in 4.2.x (cf. https://gist.github.com/serac/5886858). Correct?

Q: Given Spring Boot in CAS 5, will it be possible to declare search validator 
search base, filter and responseTime? Or is code required?

Thanks.
Tom.
