Hi Naveen,

I've created a branch, branches/CONNECTORS-1244, that has a significantly
modified LDAP authority in it.

This LDAP authority supports four different protocols: plain LDAP, LDAP
with ssl, LDAP with tls, and LDAP with both ssl and tls.  Please check out
the branch and exercise it in your environment.  If you use any of the new
protocols, you will also need to add appropriate x509 certificates to the
connection's trust store in order for them to not fail.

I'd like to integrate this back to trunk as soon as possible, so please let
me know how things are going, and also which protocol you wound up using.

Thanks,
Karl
