Re: [users@httpd] Confused about LDAP authentication with Active Directory

OK, I see it in the RFC. But it seems it's not optional in httpd.
Also you can't produce searches without binds with e.g. ldapsearch.
And it won't make much of a difference to the OP, since an anonymous
bind (i.e. not specifiying AuthLDAPBindDN) and search will be
functionally equivalent to a connect + search.
