Did you replace $REALM above with the correct value? E.g.

ldapsearch -LLL -Y GSSAPI -b cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=outland,dc=zsazouli,dc=com uid=admin

As you can see in the SASL output, the GSSAPI negotiation happened
successfully, the "No such object (32)" answer is LDAP return code which
is most likely due to wrong base used. If no object would exist, you'd
get empty successful result instead.
