18*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard Worker
19*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard WorkerRequire SSL/TLS for the connection - often referred to as STARTTLS or STLS
20*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard Workerbecause of the involved commands. Terminates the connection if the transfer
21*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard Workercannot be upgraded to use SSL/TLS.

23*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard WorkerThis option is handled in LDAP (added in 7.81.0). It is fully supported by the
24*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard WorkerOpenLDAP backend and rejected by the generic ldap backend if explicit TLS is
25*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard Workerrequired.
26*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard Worker
27*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard WorkerThis option is unnecessary if you use a URL scheme that in itself implies
28*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard Workerimmediate and implicit use of TLS, like for FTPS, IMAPS, POP3S, SMTPS and
29*6236dae4SAndroid Build Coastguard WorkerLDAPS. Such a transfer always fails if the TLS handshake does not work.
