Re: Is there a way to set a preference on entries with multiple userPassword attributes?

Hi Clement,

Thanks for the response. It's an issue because there are certain accounts we want to auth directly with ldap since using sasl is much slower. However, with our current setup they are all going through sasl first.

Is ldap unable to assign a priority to a password entry?

Thanks,

Jeremy

Hello Jeremy,

I have done some tests. I confirm that you can have 2 userPassword 
values, one SASL and the other regular. When you BIND with a password, 
it seems all values are tested, and if one match, then the BIND is 
successful. I don't see how you can select an order in the passwords.

But why is it a problem? With this setup, you can use SASL or regular 
password for an entry, and the failback will work.
