Anonymous

No authentication is performed.

Y(Default)

FastBind

Specifies that ADSI will not attempt to query
the Active Directory objectClass property.
Therefore, only the base interfaces that are
supported by all ADSI objects will be exposed.
Other interfaces that the object supports will
not be available. A user can use this option to
boost the performance in a series of object
manipulations that involve only methods of
the base interfaces. However, ADSI does not
verify if any of the request objects actually
exist on the server. For more information, see
the section "Fast Binding Option for Batch
Write/Modify Operations" in the MSDN
Library at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library.
For more information about the objectClass
property, see the "Object-Class" section in
the MSDN Library at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library.

Y

Secure

Requests secure authentication. When this
flag is set, the WinNT provider uses NTLM to
authenticate the client. Active Directory uses
Kerberos, and possibly NTLM, to authenticate
the client. When the user name and password
are a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic),
ADSI binds to the object using the security
context of the calling thread, which is either
the security context of the user account
under which the application is running or of
the client user account that the calling thread
is impersonating.
