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.
