server requires. Choices are:
• None—No authentication is used between the 
client and the server.
• Simple—The client sends its fully-qualified 
domain name and password to the LDAP server. 
May present security issues.
• Digest-MD5—The LDAP server sends 
authentication options and a token to the client. 
The client returns an encrypted response that is 
decrypted and verified by the server.
