If you happen to be using Active Directory, then you should really be
using Kerberos-based auth instead.  AD includes both LDAP and a KDC and
the LDAP half is really *not* the way to handle authentication in that
environment (or, well, really, LDAP isn't a terribly secure option in
any environment, but if it's all you've got and you're not allowed to
change then I suppose there's not much to be done about it).

Thanks!
