>             Project: Directory ApacheDS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: rootDSE
>            Reporter: Alex Karasulu
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 2.0.0-RC1

> From RFC 4513 section 3.1.5:
>         "The server may advertise different capabilities after installing a
>          TLS layer.  In particular, the value of 'supportedSASLMechanisms' may
>          be different after a TLS layer has been installed (specifically, the
>          EXTERNAL and PLAIN [PLAIN] mechanisms are likely to be listed only
>          after a TLS layer has been installed)."
> So we should only expose the PLAIN or EXTERNAL mechanism as a value in the 
> RootDSE's supportedSASLMechanisms attribute for those clients possessing 
> sessions with TLS confidentiality.
