I have got problems with GSSAPI authentication to OpenLDAP:
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Other (e.g., implementation specific) error (80) additional info: SASL(-1): generic failure: GSSAPI Error: No credentials were supplied, or the credentials were unavailable or inaccessible. (unknown mech-code 0 for mech unknown)

There were at least two discussions, multiple bug reports, and patches about broken GSSAPI on FreeBSD 8, the longest (I found) starting here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-July/057734.html

After reading through these discussions, I do not know what the proper fix is -- I would like to change as little as possible introducing SASL authentication to a (production) OpenLDAP server.

I have got: An i386 kerberos server, a ldap server in a jail on i386, some amd64 clients -- all running 8.1-RELEASE. Eventually there need to be some Debian/Ubuntu clients using GSSAPI/SASL, too.

What do I need to "fix"? Just the ldap server? Is it enough to change the jail or does the host needs to be patches, too? Or do I need to fix the client, too? The kerberos server?

From the discussion, multiple fixes were possible. Patching libgssapi and reinstalling everything depending on it (what?), installing the heimdal-1.0 port (while FreeBSD 8 comes with heimdal-1.1), installing an unofficial heimdal-1.2 port, ...

Is that correct? Anything new after the discussion in July?

From the discussion, some patches should already be in 8-STABLE, but I could not find the revision (after 8.1-RELEASE).

If I upgraded the ldap jail to 8-STABLE, I guess the host needs to be updated, too. Hence I would prefer to just change ports or update single libraries.

Does anyone have OpenLDAP+GSSAPI running on FreeBSD 8? With the libgssapi patch? With the heimdal-1.2 port?

Thanks,
Jan Henrik
