Subject: MD5

Hi,

Are you connecting to Domino with the Softerra Administrator tool? Yes, you need to use Simple authentication. The Domino LDAP server currently does not support MD5. You can configure the Domino LDAP server to use SSL if you’d like.

Subject: thanks

I did use softerra ldap browser, :)For one customer works on lotus domino, we need share authentication with domino. We support Plane-text and Digest-MD5 but LDAP over SSL. Can you make sure domino not support Digest-MD5, i found class file of sasl in the domino directory, and IBM declared that domino support SASl though “supportedSASLMechanisms=External”.

can you give me some suggestions? Thanks again

Subject: connect from LDAP client

BTW. We are connecting to Domino from a 3rd party LDAP client and would like to hide the authentication materials.

So it seems we need to use SSL.
