This is what I try to figure out right now. I am just searching where
to switch of some SASL methods (or SASL at all) in 389ds. Do you know
where this can be done. Haven't found anything yet (beside of the ./configure
switches). I am searching something which does not require a recompile.

Sure. But it was reproducable without reboot. If my password was

stored cleartext I could log in. If I changed it back to SSHA or MD5
login was no longer possible.
