Description of Problem: cyrus-saslauthd does not come with ldap out of the box. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.1.7 How Reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try setting the saslauthd mech to "ldap" in the init.d file. 2. 3. Actual Results: saslauthd does not support ldap. Expected Results: Additional Information: I recompiled the saslauthd rpm --with-ldap and installed it. It works great, but the reason for using 8.0 is so that there's less compiling in the future :/
Same issue exists on 8.0 except when you attempt to recompile the src.rpm it fails due to a dependency on autoconf213.
Well digging in the CDs I found the autoconf213 rpm, and suprisingly after installing it is seems to coexist quite nicely with autoconf-2.53-8. So I was able to recompile with the --with-ldap option added to the cyrus-sasl.spec file.
