 <p><strong>SASL</strong> authentication is based on a standard described in <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4422.txt">RFC 4422</a>. <strong>SASL</strong> means <strong>S</strong>imple <strong>A</strong>uthentication and <strong>S</strong>ecurity <strong>L</strong>ayer.</p>
 <p>It extends the Simple authentication, by allowing the LDAP server to authenticate the user by various mechanisms.</p>
-<p>The <strong>SASL* Authentication is used when a simple user/password authentication is not enough. Many other systems exist, and may take many parameters to authenticate a user. With </strong>SASL**, a challenge/response system is used to get the needed information from the client, up to the point the authentication is either successful or fails.</p>
