LDP Notes |

Open Command Prompt |
There are several authentication methods available in LDP that allow a client to bind to an LDAP server. The best method depends on several factors.
Method | Description |
---|---|
Simple | Clear text password. Try not to use this as it is not secure. |
MSN | MSN (Microsoft Network) authentication. This package may bring up UI to prompt the user for MSN credentials. |
DPA | Normandy authentication, new MSN authentication. Same usage as MSN. |
NTLM | NT domain authentication. Use NULL credentials and attempt to use default logged in user credentials. |
Sicily | Negotiate with the server for any of: MSN, DPA, NTLM. Should be used for LDAPv2 servers only. |
Negotiate | Use GSSAPI Negotiate package to negotiate security package of either Kerberos V5 or NTLM (or any other package the client and server negotiate). Pass in NULL credentials to specify default logged in user. If Negotiate package is not installed on server or client, this will fall back to Sicily negotiation. |
