Hello Emmanuel,

forgive my ignorance. Does startTLS work fine over a Firewall ?

I am asking because on the site where I am working in my day job we are
using LDAPS over a Firewall.
First, LDAPS is deprecated since LDAP V2. I know that everybody still uses it, but that's a mistake, or more probably inertia at work.

Second, considering that StartTLS is an extended operation, and that it's send on the normal LDAP port, there is no reason it can't be used over a firewall.
