<br>
LDAP authentication can operate in two modes(simple bind mode and search and bind<br>
mode), auth options is set by pool_hba.conf. These are the same as PostgreSQL LDAP<br>
authentication.<br>
<br>
LDAP authentication require a password input from client. It is not used for <br>
authentication between Pgpool-II and PostgreSQL by default, because LDAP and PostgreSQL<br>
may have different passwords. If LDAP authentication password is the same as PostgreSQL,<br>
we can reuse it for authentication between Pgpool-II and PostgreSQL by setting<br>
backend_use_password to 1 in auth-options.<br>
<br>
If you test a this patch, you should need automake and autoconf because this patch<br>
edited <a href="http://configure.ac" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">configure.ac</a> .<br>
<br>
for example:<br>
$ autoheader<br>
$ aclocal<br>
$ automake -a -c<br>
$ autoconf<br>
<br>
Comments and suggestions are welcome.<br>
