Had a look around and can't quite find a clear answer to this.
I've created a small Winform app for setting a users password with LDAP.
It runs on a terminal server in our domain and does the job.

What I'm trying to find out is when I use this to change a password is the password sent in clear text to the domain controllers?
I use de.AuthenticationType = AuthenticationTypes.Secure in my code but I'm not sure that this 'hides' the traffic between the terminal server and the domain controller - seems it just stops unauthorised access (although it will only run for Domain Admins).

Thanks.
Seán.
