LDAP Authentication

[awskarthik]

I would like to know whether LDAP authentication supports Simple Bind(Plain username & password) over LDAPS. Right now when i try it tries to do NTLM authentication.

A deep question, hopefully Support will get an answer for you.

Thank you! Sent an email to support but no reply yet. It sends NTLM if non-binding was not allowed, if we allow then it tries to do SASL DIGEST-MD5. I want to know whether PLAIN is possible.

Support has responded. It's a bit too detailed for the forum though.
