Richard,<br><br>thanks so much! It magically works now. For what its worth, I took another FDS instance and did the same; remove the /usr/lib/sasl*/*md5* libraries. With the ns-slapd still running I observed no change to the query of SASL types (ldapsearch -x -H ldap:// -LLL -s "base" -b "" supportedSASLMechanisms). So I restarted, and FDS still reports MD5. So I wait a few minutes, restart FDS again, no luck ... still reports MD5. I begin to close all applications and prepare for a reboot, but just before I issue the reboot command I check again. Viola! no more MD5. weird...
<br><br>I'm not sure what magic happened to remove the MD5 SASL auth types. A simple FDS restart didn't seem to do the trick right off the bat.<br><br>End of story, my Mac's can now auth against my preferred directory server. something, something, something, happily every after... THE END!
<br><br>Thanks again Richard, and everybody else on the list!<br>Mahalo nui loa,<br>John<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 11/16/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Richard Megginson</b> <<a href="mailto:rmeggins@redhat.com">

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206053</a>>) Thus<br>> far I've been unsuccessful at working around the CRAM-MD5 as he<br>> suggested by removing the /usr/lib/sasl2/libcrammd5.so* files.<br>
Really? Did you restart FDS once you removed those files? Do you see<br>cram-md5 bind attempts in the FDS access log?<br>><br>> Does anybody have any further insight on how I can get my Macs to auth<br>> against FDS?
