LDAP - TLS support

Hi,

I see that LDAP and LDAPS are supported but no LDAP Start TLS.

LDAPS is not so common and we use to see more and more LDAP Start TLS instead.

Anything on the roadmap to support it? As OpenProject is already supporting LDAPS the library is already used, it should be fairly to add LDAP Start TLS support?

Many thanks

I was always under the assumption that ruby's NET::LDAP doesn't even support TLS since everyone used LDAPS ;-) Turns out that they do indeed support it: https://github.com/ruby-ldap/ruby-net-ldap/blob/a6d6ec8285f2548fa0c08169ecc65b112922c5bd/lib/net/ldap.rb#L562-L588

I will look into providing a way to distinguish between :simple_tls and :start_tls options in the frontend. I opened OP-5553 for that.

Best,

Oliver

Thanks Oliver!

Is it a right place to be informed when/which version you'll plan to include this ? (I saw on the other ticket you opened 8.3.0)
