But I want sasl to authenticate against my LDAP server. The how-to in the FreeBSD handbook is good but assumes only local authentication. The cyrus-sasl2 and openldap ports give hints that it is possible, but I'm just not quite getting it. Are there other how-to sites that others have used successfully? Do I need to use PAM or does cyrus-sasl know how to directly query an LDAP server? I'm running a fresh FreeBSD 6.0-Release system. TIA, Jon
