/// This method has the responsibility to bind to one of the

/// exactly to the list of hosts returned in a single referral response.
/// An implementation may access the host, port, credentials, and other
/// information in the original LdapConnection object to decide on an
/// appropriate authentication mechanism, and/or interact with a user or
/// external module. The object implementing LdapBind creates a new
/// LdapConnection object to perform its connect and bind calls. It
/// returns the new connection when both the connect and bind operations
/// succeed on one host from the list. The LdapConnection object referral
/// following code uses the new LdapConnection object when it resends the
/// search request, updated with the new search base and possible search
/// filter. An LdapException is thrown on failure, as in the
/// LdapConnection.bind method.
