> Current implementation of DelegatingAuthenticator uses plain socket connection which makes it vulnerable to MITM attacks.
> It will be good to setup TLS (using startTLS extended operation) after establishing a connection. 
> We should also add a configuration option to selectively turn on/off this option with a new attributetype named like 'useTLS' 
> in the 'ads-delegatingAuthenticator' objectclass.
