LDAP Authentication

The LDAP Authentication login module is a more fully featured LDAP authentication module. This module validates all connections (users, routes, and so on) by authenticating to the LDAP server using the supplied credentials.

This EMS JAAS module keeps one lookup context open using a manager context, and then uses copies of that context to search for users. This allows the LDAP implementation to reuse the connection for subsequent searches, improving performance.
