Weird behaviour when using SASL

[miguel.sanders]

Hi guys

I'm using nss_ldap (259) on SLES10 with SASL bind to the LDAP directory.
Even though everythings works fine on the prompt (I can use the id commands to list any LDAP user, which uses the SASL bind), daemons/applications (nscd,lsof) that use nss_ldap indirectly return errors in the syslog. (f.e. Apr 11 17:24:49 svbiad02 nscd: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldap://sv106n.esx.sidmar.agn/: Unknown authentication method)

Whenever I remove SASL in the ldap.conf file and replace it by normal binds, those daemons/applications work properly.
Has anyone encountered something similar?
Any help would be appreciated!

ldap.conf looks like
uri ldap://sv105n.esx.sidmar.agn/ ldap://sv107n.esx.sidmar.agn/ ldap://sv104n.esx.sidmar.agn/ ldap://sv106n.esx.sidmar.agn/

base o=sidmar,dc=agn
ldap_version 3
port 389
scope sub
timelimit 30
bind_timelimit 30
bind_policy soft
idle_timelimit 3600
ssl no
use_sasl on

nss_base_passwd         ou=users,ou=esx,o=sidmar,dc=agn?one
nss_base_shadow         ou=users,ou=esx,o=sidmar,dc=agn?one
nss_base_group          ou=groups,ou=esx,o=sidmar,dc=agn?one

----

nsswitch.conf looks like
passwd:         files ldap
group:          files ldap

Met vriendelijke groet
Best regards
Bien à vous
