Add connection type LDAP+StartTLS for Spotfire Server connection to LDAP.

Currently Spotfire Server can connect to OpenLDAP via LDAP and LDAPS. The preferred way of connection for OpenLDAP is LDAP+StartTLS, which is not provided as connection type at the moment. Our current approach is making only use of LDAP+StartTLS as preffered.

    Yeah, but the initialization does not take place. That's the issue.

    It is a difference to use LDAP via a SSL secured TCP port (LDAPS) or use a unencrtyped TCP port and obey the server request for encryption after establishing the unsecured dTCP connection. I checked both protocols, after getting LDAPS open temporarly. LDAPS is working, LDAP+StartTLS is not.

    It looks like you should be able to setup LDAPS in your OpenLDAP system.

     

    "Once initiated, there is no difference between ldaps:// and StartTLS."
