BUT:

ls: cannot access '/var/lib/samba/private/ldapi': No such file or directory

Yes, you said :-). But Im testing Rust ldap3-lib, which only is able to
use SASL and ldapi, not kerberos. Finding some rust lib able using
kerberos, i will change.

For my ldapi-problem, I make some further resarch and will report.

Tfh!
