A Start TLS operation is performed by calling
.BR ldap_start_tls_s (3).
A LDAP bind operation is performed by calling
.BR ldap_sasl_bind (3)

A Search operation is performed by calling ldap_search_ext_s(3)
or one of its friends.
Subsequently, additional operations are performed

Results returned from these routines are interpreted by calling the
