#220 EXTERNAL should not be advertised unless useful
Closed: wontfix 6 years ago Opened 12 years ago by rmeggins.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=221229

Description of problem:
The EXTERNAL SASL mech should only be advertised to clients if the server has a
useful mapping to attach it to.  For example, if SSL client certificate
matching
is configured, or if ldapi:// support is implemented, and getpeername() is
available.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora DS 1.0.4

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup a default install of fedora DS
2. Search the rootDSE for supportedSASLMechs on an ldap://, not TLS connection
3. Notice that EXTERNAL is listed

Actual results:
supportedsaslmechanisms: EXTERNAL
...

Expected results:
This should not appear

Additional info:

Apparenetly already pointed out by Howard Chu, OpenLDAP has the correct
behaviour.

Pretty sure we now always advertise external no matter what as it's part of the ldap spec somewhere. I'm going to close this as a result.
