I'm study around ldap and read a lot of articles but find the way
verry strange with a lot of pitfalls... of course the way which I took
(Kerberos5) had them too (and a lot) but looks now very clear. One
main argument was, that Active Directory did not allow anonymous ldap
requests. With "anonymous ldap" you have to do a lot of extra work. So
I decide to use Kerberos.
