How can I safely implement required ldap signing?

Require signature. The LDAP data-signing option must be negotiated unless Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer (TLS/SSL) is in use.
So if the client is set to negotiate a connection is possible.
The problem that can be faced is if the client is set to 'required' and the server is set to 'none' then the client will report a bind failure to the calling code as it will not connect to a correctly hardened server.

Require signing. This level is the same as Negotiate signing. However, if the LDAP server's intermediate saslBindInProgress response does not indicate that LDAP traffic signing is required, the caller is returned a message that the LDAP BIND command request failed.
I'm uncertain Mr Steve Norton...and it's a scary thing to be uncertain about.
