   We use Sun's LDAP server with PADL's GSSAPI plugin - we built our 
copy against MIT Kerberos 1.3.x and use MIT KDCs.  I think the binary 
versions they sold previously also use MIT Kerberos.

   We now have several processes that regularly use only GSSAPI/SASL 
over SSL to authenticate and communicate with LDAP.  Works very well.

HTH,
