A bind over SSL is still called a "simple bind" and simply mean a bind
that users a plain text password, the other option is a "SASL bind".

We use SASL binds when using Krb credentials for example to do a
SASL/GSSAPI/Krb5 bind.

We could also use a SASL/PLAIN bind, but I think there is a bug in 389DS
with SASL/PLAIN, there should be a ticket somewhere. But it is not
important, SASL/PLAIN is almost never used.

Simo.
