NAME

       ldap_start_tls,  ldap_start_tls_s, ldap_tls_inplace, ldap_install_tls -
       LDAP TLS initialization routines

LIBRARY

       OpenLDAP LDAP (libldap, -lldap)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_start_tls(LDAP *ld);

       int ldap_start_tls_s(LDAP *ld, LDAPControl  **serverctrls,  LDAPControl
       **clientctrls);

       int ldap_tls_inplace(LDAP *ld);

       int ldap_install_tls(LDAP *ld);

DESCRIPTION

       These  routines are used to initiate TLS processing on an LDAP session.
       ldap_start_tls_s() sends a StartTLS request to a server, waits for  the
       reply,  and  then  installs  TLS handlers on the session if the request
       succeeded. The routine returns LDAP_SUCCESS  if  everything  succeeded,
       otherwise  it  returns  an  LDAP  error code.  ldap_start_tls() sends a
       StartTLS request  to  a  server  and  does  nothing  else.  It  returns
       LDAP_SUCCESS  if the request was sent successfully.  ldap_tls_inplace()
       returns 1 if TLS handlers have been installed on the specified session,
       0 otherwise.  ldap_install_tls() installs the TLS handlers on the given
       session. It returns LDAP_LOCAL_ERROR if TLS is already installed.
