Thank you for the quick reply. We're going for the TLS based solution. However, I'd like a better understanding of SASL, so let me post these questions:

The RHDS documentation says that TLS can be used as an authentication mechanism, but doesn't provide much details. - How can I check if SASL is enabled on my LDAP server (RHDS)?
