[389-users] Only username as bind dn

[Paolo Barbato]

Hi 389-users,

I'm testing last released 389 dirsrv on a rhel 6.5.

I've deployed a PAM passthrough, since I have a central repository for credentials,
and it works.

I guess if it would be possible to use a simple username or it's mandatory use syntax
like uid=myuser (or cn=..) as bind dn.

ldapsearch -v -LLL -Hldaps://my389 -b"dc=myDC" -D "uid=myUser" -W -x  
works

ldapsearch -v -LLL -Hldaps://my389 -b"dc=myDC" -D "myUser" -W -x  
doesn't work

ldap_bind: No such object (32)
	additional info: Bind DN [myUser] is invalid or not found

So the question is if would be possible rewrite in some way the bind dn before syntax
check.

Regards,
Paolo.
