>
> It's possible to perform delegated authentication by handling referral
> chasing in the server on bind operations. This could be a new external
> authentication mechanism. If a bind request using a principalDn represents a
> referral or does not exist but has a referral at some ancestor in the DN then
> the server can delegate the authentication to the target server. If the
> target server referrenced in the ref attribute authenticates the user then
> ApacheDS accepts the user as authenticated.
