Not necessarily. Like I said it depends on your security model. Personally I |
| 9 |
use -x myself because I always use either tls or ssl ldap connections. This |
| 10 |
way my password is encrypted at all times. Ofcourse if you were worried about |
| 11 |
your password traversing the network at ALL then you could use the mechanisms |
| 12 |
like cram / digest that make one time hashes and send that instead thus |
| 13 |
mitigating the risk in that respect. Its about what fits your security |
| 14 |
requirements more, for most people though, -x with tls / ssl is fine. |
