Be sure to retain the indentation given in the example. 54 54 Copy/paste can sometimes cause problems. 55 55 56 > **Note:** The `method` value `ssl` corresponds to 'Simple TLS' in the LDAP 56 > **Note:** The `method` value `ssl` corresponds to 'Simple TLS' in the Net::LDAP @dblessing Actually I disagree. In this sentence you're talking about the "method" (Simple TLS) that corresponds to the specific library. In this case the actual libraries name is
Net::LDAP
ornet-ldap
not simply LDAP.If a user is reading this sentence it's likely they understand the internals and are trying to understand the differing methods. e.g What is Simple TLS in the LDAP library? It's simple_tls in the
Net::LDAP
library.Edited by username-removed-444214The point of this documentation is to avoid confusion between
ssl
andtls
. Some SSL-savvy people may say, 'Oh, TLS is better than SSL. I should use that.' But in all actuality that is not true in this case. Perhaps the entire sentence/paragraphs needs restructured in that case. The intention of the docs is to stay away from the deep internals - this is a user doc, not a developer doc, etc.What do you think?
Thanks, @MrChrisW. Please update based on the comment then it's
