Authentication Operations

The bind operation enables an LDAP client to identify itself to the directory by providing an identity and authentication credentials. By calling the unbind operation the client can terminate an existing session. The abandon operation allows the client to inform the server that it is no longer interested in the results of an operation that was previously submitted.

The following table shows the LDAP authentication operations that are supported in Windows CE.

Operation Description
bind Sent by the client to authenticate itself to the directory.
unbind Sent by the client to indicate that it wants to disconnect from the server.
abandon Issued by the client to indicate that it is no longer interested in obtaining the results of a previously initiated operation.
