That is the error I am getting too.
My understanding of how it is supposed to work is that _ldap.pyd calls into
libsasl.dll first (this part works) but then libsasl.dll has to find and load
the requested auth mechanism.
Unfortunately I did not find a way of telling libsasl where the
auth plugin dlls are located.
Dropping them into the same directory and hoping it will find them
does not seem to work.
