For a non-native speaker, the documentation sounds a bit like
ldap_set_option(l, LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_NEWCTX, 0) does not create a new
context at all because the input value is zero. Could you please mention
that a zero value creates a client context?
"This option creates a context.
If you specify a 1, it will create a context for a server."
Nothing in these statements implies that it will *not* create a context.
Closing this ITS.
