I solved my own problem, partially, but there is still something I don't understand. My problem was in trying to use the Secure authentication type in my Windows app. When I changed the authentication type to None (which in Windows parlance means a simple bind) it worked. All of the entries I had made for allowing my specific host access, and permissions I had granted the account (adding the user to the Domain Admins) were unnecessary. However, what I can't figure out is how to use any authentication that is stronger. I presume that the Windows None/simple bind equates to Plain. My supported sasl mechanisms are: external, plain, gssapi, digest-md5, cram-md5, and anonymous. Do I need to add to this list to communicate via stronger authentication with my Windows app, and if so how do I add to this list?
