Hi Jim,

We certainly want to support this configuration. Can you be specific about what your connector had to do differently? The shib-supplied JNDI connector should be able to pass-through any property to the Sun ldap provider.

The stock JNDIDirectoryDataConnector did not appear to be able to
handle TLS, so we installed a custom connnector.

Am I correct about this? If there is a different way to do
TLS to an LDAP server somebody please tell me. We also
authenticate with certificates, instead of passwords.

Otherwise, TLS seems like a natural protocol to support.
The standard JNDI connector could easily be adapted to do so.
Might this be added?

Jim
