Fields

Name Value Description
Negotiate 1

The client is authenticated by using either Kerberos or NTLM. When the user name and password are not provided, the Account Management API binds to the object by using the security context of the calling thread, which is either the security context of the user account under which the application is running or of the client user account that the calling thread represents.

SimpleBind 2

The client is authenticated by using the Basic authentication.

Caution: Communications may be sent over the Internet in clear text if the SecureSocketsLayer option is not specified with simple bind.

SecureSocketLayer 4

The channel is encrypted by using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Active Directory requires that the Certificate Services be installed to support SSL.

Signing 8

The integrity of the data is verified. This flag can only be used with the Negotiate context option and is not available with the simple bind option.

Sealing 16

The data is encrypted by using Kerberos. This flag can only be used with the Negotiate context option and is not available with the simple bind option.

ServerBind 32

Specify this flag when you use the domain context type if the application is binding to a specific server name.

Remarks

When the context options are not specified by the application, the Account Management API uses the following combination of options:

  • ContextOptions.Negotiate | ContextOptions.Signing | ContextOptions.Sealing
