Hi people,
              still haven't got the ldap auth to work.  Evo v1.2.2  trying
Auth type distinguished name.  Built from source with option
--with-openldap=yes (ldap works ok in anonymous mode).

from addressbook-sources.xml

<authmethod>ldap/simple-binddn</authmethod>

so its set for DN type auth, and

<binddn>dc=DOMAIN,cn=username</binddn>

contains a DN


That DN format looks pretty suspect.. you sure you don't want
cn=username,dc=DOMAIN?

but my ldap bind-request packet doesn't contain a DN or a Password (both
fields are null, checked with ethereal).


the ldap backend binds twice - first using NULL/NULL (anonymous), which
shouldn't really be necessary, and then again using the user's
binddn/passwd.
