Under *IX I am using pthreads and can avoid memory leaks thanks to the nice destructor function pointer passed as the second argument to pthread_key_create, but in Windows TlsAlloc has no such thing.

Is it true that STARTTLS can be issued to a properly configured LDAP or HTTP TLS server without needing an extra port? I know tha...
