Hello,
OpenLDAP changed their default setting for LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_REQUIRE_CERT
from 0 to 2 in recent versions (haven't checked when). This breaks the
expected effect of ldap_tls_check_peer. The function lak_connect() in
lak.c only changes the default value of LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_REQUIRE_CERT if
lak->conf->tls_check_peer is not 0. So when i set ldap_tls_check_peer to
"no" (aka 0) in /etc/saslauthd.conf, LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_REQUIRE_CERT keeps
its default value of 2 ("demand"). Attached patch solves this problem
at least on debian lenny and squeeze.
This was changed in OpenLDAP May 4 2002, nearly a decade ago. Hard to call
that a "recent" change.
Setting the value to 0 is almost always the wrong thing to do.
