ldap.example.com:389/o=NetscapeRoot

use the secure port (636) instead of the standard port (389), and provide a CA
certificate.
• The Configuration Directory Server administrator's user ID; by default, this is
admin.
• The administrator user's password.
• The Configuration Directory Server Admin domain, such as example.com.
• The CA certificate to authenticate to the Configuration Directory Server. This is only
