I'm struggling with the need for SSL...
We will use our new LDAP for apps. These servers are all locally housed so each
app server will talk to the LDAP server over our network. (why) Would we need
SSL?
What about for mail services? It seems to me that our mail server would also
talk directly to the LDAP server...what am I missing here that dictates the use
of SSL with LDAP? I could see if one had their LDAP open to be accessible
direct access from off-network. Perhaps SSL is used simply as a means to
authenitcate?
