2) Client program must be able to successfully bind and perform basic LDAP search using the GSSAPI-SPNEGO protocol and the packet trace of the bind should operate similarly to the reference windows program. 3) Client program should be based on openldap and other open source libraries (Cyrus SASL?). It should use off-the-shelf api calls to perform most of the encryption, and be expected to work as well as [login to view URL], microsoft's LDAP query tool, rather than being engineered to run specifically for only the test environment. 4) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables):
