> 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.
