Update... With OpenLDAP 2.1.13 you can use SASL/EXTERNAL on ldapi://.
This is fast and secure, and needs no username or password to be stored.
The SASL config file is just
ldapdb_uri: ldapi://
ldapdb_mech: EXTERNAL
The slapd.conf will need to map these usernames to LDAP DNs:
sasl-regexp uidNumber=(.*)\\+gidNumber=(.*),cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth
ldap:///dc=example,dc=com??sub?(&(uidNumber=$1)(gidNumber=$2))
sasl-regexp uid=(.*),cn=external,cn=auth
ldap:///dc=example,dc=com??sub?(uid=$1)
